GULF OF FINLAND - GULF OF PERNAJAN
Pernajanlahti and its archipelago is one of the largest inland bays in the Gulf of Finland. It is characterised by highly variable salinity. At the mouth of the Koskenkylänjoki River, the water is almost fresh, and all species that require salt in the Baltic Sea are found at the southern edge of the bay. The area is rich in birdlife and has several bird sanctuaries. Waterfowl are abundant in spring as they search for suitable nesting sites. It is also possible to spot white-tailed eagles and ospreys. In autumn, while fishing, you may see grey seals, which come to feed in the area when the waters cool down. Water levels can occasionally fluctuate significantly, which adds interest to the fishing.
- Seal safaris 1.6 - 31.8. to the outer archipelago (weather permitting)
