Just a quick boat ride off the mainland, the eastern half of Pihlajasaari is Helsinki's nude sunbathing area, with its own gay sub-section where cruising is the name of the game. Gently lapping waves glitter over tide pools and onto soft, warm sands. Ferries depart every 15 to 30 minutes so you can easily plan your day.

beautiful place to relax
Just spent a chilled out afternoon in this pretty little island. Definitely worth a visit and only 5.50 euros for the ferry.
Cliff bath
Easy to find. Take the boat just at the café Carusel, 5,50 Euro per adult, round-trip. Signs on the Island to the nude bath, just a couple minutes walk over the new bridge. Cliffs.
