No one can say no to a trip to the happiest country in the world. And it’s even better if you’re on surrounded by water. So why not get yourself onto Click&Boat and rent a boat in the happiest country in the world: Finland.
Finland has won the prestigious title of happiest country in the world for 3 years in a row, awarded by the United Nations World Happiness Report.
What better place for a getaway after a year of dreaming about escape?
The report concludes that Finland is the happiest country in the world after people evaluated their own lives and how happy they feel they are. So what is there to do in Finland that makes people so happy?
For a start, Finland is beautiful. The Northern Lights are visible from its Arctic Lapland region, and the country is scattered with incredible wilderness and protected national parks. There are even ski-resorts. For the adventurous type, you won’t be short of things to do here.
Venture out into the forest, enjoy a concert or a festival, try a Nordic dinner or an iconic public sauna – it’s all here.
Escape to Finland…
In the south of Finland, you will find the country’s capital, Helsinki. Helsinki is also the largest city in Finland, and is home to 1.4 million people. The sea is an important part of Helsinki’s history and culture. The Helsinki Archipelago consists of over 300 mesmerizing islands.
It is evident in its cuisine, design, architecture and the day-to-day life of the Helsinkiläinen (people from Helsinki!). Begin your sailing adventure in Helsinki and set sail for its neighbouring Nordic country of Norway. Fancy a slightly different route? Begin your trip from the Dalsbruk, 170km west of Helsinki.
Boating in Finland
On the Click&Boat platform you can charter sailboats, motorboats and catamarans in Finland from as little as 100€/day. Finland is a little bit of an alternative destination though, and it would only be suitable that we have an alternative to the usual boat types on offer. So why not charter a hovercraft to take you on a tour for the day? From only 320€ per person, this crazy dream could become a reality.
Going over breaking ice and snow, we start the tour from the east side of Helsinki into the empty and deep-frozen archipelago environment. By wearing a water dry rescue suit, you have the opportunity to experience how it feels to float among ice rafts and still stay warm and dry.
