Swimming in the city beach

Winter and summer time!

Just on the otherside of the river between the bridges lies the city beach which is a good swimming spot in summer and winter. You can try swimming there even during the coldest months -if you dare - since the ice swimming enthusiasts keep a hole in the ice open all winter.

Best burgers in the arctic!



Kauppayhtiö is a peculiar bar where everything is for sale. Besides the tasty food and drinks, good tunes and vibes make Kauppayhtiö great place to hang out and meet locals - day and night.

You also get -10% off the food when you stay with us at Hostel & Café Koti.
