Accessibility
The Harakka ferry is not accessible, but the driver can help lift a pram or light wheelchair aboard if needed. There is an accessible toilet near the pier, and the larger toilet has a baby-changing table. Part of the sandy route can work with a pram, but rocky sections, steps, the hill to the Nature House and nesting-season route limits can make moving around difficult.

Plan your visit

Practical notes
The outing starts at Harakka's pier area after the 12:00 ferry has arrived on the island. The ferry leaves from Ullanlinnanlaituri beside Café Ursula, at Ehrenströmintie 3; raise the white wooden call sign on the pier 5 minutes before departure. Harakka does not have a café, so bring water and snacks for before or after the outing. Visitors cannot arrive with their own boat or bring dogs.
Schedule notes
The remaining summer 2026 island adventures are on Sundays 14.6, 28.6, 12.7, 26.7, 9.8 and 23.8 from 12:00 to 14:00.
Booking notes
No advance registration is used. The event has a maximum capacity of 50 participants, so arrive in good time and make the 12:00 ferry.
Price notes
The event is free. The ferry is paid separately: a Harakka return trip costs EUR 9 for adults, EUR 6 for children aged 7-17 and retirees, and is free for children under 7. Card or MobilePay is the preferred payment method.
Age notes
The island adventure is for children aged 4-10 with an adult. The adult joins the outing with the child throughout the event.
