Helsinki Cathedral and Harbour, Finland

Day 1

Cross the short distance to the launch point, pack your stuff into a dry bag and after a safety briefing, paddle onto the beautiful Gulf of Finland - there’s no fixed route, so you can explore at will! Keep an eye out for wildlife like grey seals and sea eagles and feel free to pull up on any pristine beach that takes your fancy. Stop for lunch on a remote island before continuing to your campsite where you can enjoy a tranquil evening by the sea and indulge in a well-earned, three-course dinner cooked over the campfire.
