Overview
In Helsinki, roaming around by ferry is a popular way to get around in the summer months. Tourists love this mode of transport for its scenic views and its slow pace. The main ferry network is owned by HKL but private owners also provide ferries for tourists going back and forth. A tourist ticket has to be bought from the terminal to board the ferry and it is advised to book your tickets in advance in the peak seasons of June, July and August.
