- Accessibility
- The Harakka ferry is not accessible, but the driver can help lift a stroller aboard if needed. Some island routes work with a stroller, but the rocky parts are not suitable for strollers or wheelchairs. There are toilets with ramp access next to the ferry pier, and the larger toilet has a diaper changing station.
