Nature objects

Hietasaari
The delightful Hietasaari area, with its nature trails, birdwatching tower and campfire site, is located near the city centre. The Hietasaari area, which arose from the sea about 300–400 years ago, used to be popular among the bourgeoisie who had summer houses there at the end of the 19th century.

Other attractions of the Hietasaari district include the Nallikari recreation and camping site, Spa Hotel Eden, Hietasaari Tanssimajakka (for dancing), boat berths and docking areas as well as the home harbours of the local sailing clubs.
