Laajasalo beach is a tree-shaded, sandy-bottomed beach on Reposalmentie, right next to Laajasalo Sports Park. The water deepens evenly, and in the summer season the beach has lifeguard supervision, a dressing room, shower, toilets, kiosk, gym equipment, and volleyball court. The nearby sports park adds more outdoor activity options beside the beach visit.

Booking notes
A normal beach visit does not require booking.
Price notes
The beach is free. Kiosk purchases cost extra.
Age notes
The evenly deepening sandy bottom, beach, and sports areas suit many child ages. Young children need constant adult supervision near the water.
Seasonal notes
The best season is the summer beach season, when supervision and beach services operate.
Weather notes
A beach day depends on weather, water temperature, wind, and blue-green algae conditions.
