Finland

We sailed through hundreds of small rocky islands - some only a few acres or less. The passage between these granite rocks in the Finish archipelago is fascinating but not easy. We took a Finish pilot aboard and we wound through the rocks with little clearance between the outcrops at times. We anchored off one of the larger Alande Islands and made a Zodiac landing in a small rocky cove.








There are a number of small huts on the island that Finish artist sometimes use for the solitude of the islands.


This particular building is perched over a cove and is a boat house. The small boats actually tie up under the building. We had a peaceful, pleasant walk across the island before re boarding the Explorer.
