Pihlajasaari on entinen huvilasaari, joka nykyisin on helsinkiläisten monipuolinen ulkoilualue. Saarella on vielä joitakin vanhoja huviloita ja sen luonto koostuu kallioista, metsiköistä, lehtomaista sekä kallio- ja hiekkarannoista.
Pihlajasaari 00150 Helsinki Finland
Crowded on midsummer, avoid unless you enjoy queuing to be able to share a grill with three other groups at a time. Another option is to bring your own, although single use grills are banned.
And it is good barbecue place close to beach . And good sunset . And camping place in little island .
Authentic 50's feel, villas , nice sand beach , laid back atmosphere . Just get a ferry in front of restaurant Carusel, Kaivopuisto. Read more
Ferry time table from/ to Ruoholahti . And it cost 5,50 both way.
Lovely beach with a history.
Wonderful little island to experience nature at it's best!
Pihlajasaari has also Helsinki's another naturist beach (the other one being Seurasaari). Turn left from the pier and cross the bridge .
There's also a ferry going from/to Ruoholahti once per hour.
Nice little park for picnic and plain hanging out! Take a swim from the pier used for washing carpets! - Ilona Hiila
Seems to be the hippest summer place to be in 2014. Book a table in their restaurant or bring your own drinks and enjoy them, watching the sunset. JT Lines ferry takes you there from the market sq. - Noora
Great summer terrace with a seaview on one of the most interesting islands infront of Helsinki and it's just a short 15 minute boat trip away from Merisatama. - Anna H
One of the two only nudist beaches in Helsinki. Great place to enjoy the Nordic summer sun and the warm Baltic Sea. - Sean Yeh
