    Tropiclandia image
    Good place, but little bit oldish. Outside pool area was small compared to some other spas in Finland. Weird same corridor for women and men. Why not access to sea although it is so near. See more..

    Vanhan Vaasan rauniot image
    Nice ruins with lots of good spots for pictures. Sadly the biggest ruin was fenced off and thus not accessible. Furthermore, there wasn't too much to see. It's free though so as long as you keep your expectations low, it's a good spot to visit. See more..

    Granösund Fishing Village image
    The Granösund Fishing Village Museum (also known as Granösundin saaristolaismuseo, Granösundin kalastajakylä or Granösunds fiskeläge) is open at 12 noon - 5 p.m. from Wednesday to Sunday in the summer 2018, although some web pages claim that it is open only at weekends. Drive to Raippaluotto (the road 724), turn to Norra Vallgrund (the road 7242) and follow signs with the text "Granösunds fiskeläge". So you find the museum, which is situated in Bullerås (address Bulleråsvägen 320), Södra Vallgrund, next to the small swimming beach of Bullerås. The museum provides a view of life in coastal Ostrobothnia in the days, when the majority of the population depended upon fishing, seal hunting, farming and handicraft for its livelihood. The museum consists of about ten buildings: a dwelling cottage, boathouses, a fishermen's sauna, a net-shed, a barn and a loft storehouse. The museum also has a large collection of fishing and hunting tools, e.g. an unusual boat from the year 1864. I could say that this museum is a hidden gem. We asked if they have many visitors. They answered that they have had at least one visitor every day! I am happy that we visited this interesting and earthy museum! See more..
