Gulf of Finland National Park
Located in the outer archipelago off the southeastern coast of Finland, the Gulf of Finland National Park is a stunning natural haven stretching across the municipalities of Hamina, Kotka, and Pyhtää. This remote and rugged national park consists of over a hundred islands and islets scattered across the sea, offering a rare combination of natural beauty, rich birdlife, and wartime history.
The main island, Ulko-Tammio, is not only a tranquil escape but also a historically significant site, home to well-preserved remains of a World War II fortress. Other notable islands in the park include Kilpisaari, Ristisaari, Mustaviiri, and Pitkäviiri, each with its own unique character and charm.
