    Easy to say: you just have to see this place by your own eyes, because the atmosphere here in the lighthouse is far more better than it is in these beautiful pictures. The ride to the lighthouse...

    A fantastic experience and an important walk to history of Finland. Spiritually refreshing. Friendly atmospheric family run cafe and hotel.

    Gorgeous! Great place to visit. Take a boat from Kasnäs and enjoy the isolated lighthouse. It's the most southern inhabited island in Finland 🇫🇮. But boats can't land if too windy.
