Isosaari is one of the several small islands surrounding Helsinki. Isosaari is actually one of Helsinki’s outermost islands and a significant destination in terms of its cultural history. As a fort island, Isosaari is more than 100 years old, and it was already inhabited in the 19th century. The island has a remarkable military history, and there are a number of sights to remind visitors of that. Most of the island is forested, but you’ll also find roads for walking around and admiring the nature. Rare birds, such as the white-tailed eagle, nest on the island, and seals have also been sighted in the nearby waters. The island boasts a restaurant with a wonderful terrace by the sea, two beaches, rocky shores and even a golf course. Fresh air and fresh ideas to boost your meeting!
The ferries to Isosaari operate from mid-May to mid-September. The journey takes about half an hour.
The most intensive way to boost well-being at your workplace is to go and experience nature at its best.

Please note that Helsinki Biennaali - an international art event starts in Vallisaari on June 12, 2020 and the event may cause changes in the guided tour.
