Luxury yacht charter in Finland
Home of the midnight sun, Finland remains one of the best places to enjoy near 24-hour daylight in a surreal experience where the sun barely dips below the horizon during summer. This simply means more time to enjoy Finland’s pristine, untouched nature as well as an extra boost to your tanning time.
Finland has 3 UNESCO world heritage sites accessible from its coast including the beautiful Old Rauma, a traditional Finnish town showcasing old Finnish architecture with entire streets being made entirely from wood. If you prefer a more modern experience, the seaside capital, Helsinki is easily accessible, providing stellar shopping, a range of Michelin star restaurants and world-class nightlife.
Hunting one of the largest animals in Europe, the European Elk, can be done from the comfort of your yacht, as well as fishing along the Finnish coast or in one of its lakes.
Finland remains the must-visit destination in the Baltic Sea, but with St Petersburg, Stockholm and Tallinn only a stone’s throw away, the opportunities are endless!
