#TIP FOR GROUPS Experience the icy beauty of the Raahe archipelago - guided archipelago ice cruise

Feel the power of the sea, ice and wind in the midst of natural wonders and the Raahe archipelago, which has been shaped to its unique form by post-glacial rebound and early sources of livelihood. This cruise will take you to view the sparkling spring ice of the Bay of Bothnia, to the shallows of Klupu, Kiviperttu and Ulkoletto, where the late winter storms usually pack the ice into glistening peaks reaching the height of several men. Amid these landscapes you will be able to feel the marine nature deep inside you. The heart of the archipelago lies a mere 20 minutes from the centre of Raahe.

The cruise is available by order from the time the ice cover parts to mid-May. The tour is operated by motorboat or sledges drawn by motorscooters, depending in the ice condition. On the icy sea, you will leave your busy day-to-day life behind and enjoy a nice cup of coffee served by the captain and enjoy tales about the archipelago, and the sea and ice shimmering under the warm spring sun. In these ever-changing landscapes, you have a good chance of spotting a grey seal or white-tailed eagle. Some Baltic ringed seals have also been seen in the area, so be sure to bring your binoculars and camera with you.
