Natural harbours

Sheltered natural harbours in the archipelago.

Saaristo gathers natural harbours, outdoor harbours and anchorages on the map and shows how a spot suits the current wind.

Compare shelter and options before you commit

A natural harbour can make a great overnight stop, but the choice depends on the wind, the swell and the kind of mooring the crew needs. Saaristo lets you weigh the options on the map before you are already too close to decide.

Use the app in the Finnish archipelago, along the Swedish coast, on Åland and across the Baltic when you are looking for a quiet spot, an outdoor harbour or an alternative to a guest harbour.
