Sveaborg or Suomenlinna offers a lovely day or half-day escapade. Only a 15 minute boat ride from the city center, using just a metro ticket (less than 3 euros as of Jan 2022). Would highly recommend.

A local gem. The architecture of this space is stunning, the views are marvellous, especially on a sunny day, and I would recommend their brunch (make sure to book). Alternatively, drop by to grab a coffee to take away, or enjoy dinner outside in the summer (the salmon soup is great). Of course, if you have the chance, enjoy their sauna and take a deep in the sea!
