FinRIB: Shoreline & Archipelago with RIB Boat
See Helsinki from the sea (updated in 2025)
A RIB boat ride is an excellent way to get to know Helsinki and differs from traditional tours. The usual travel speed is 40-60 km/hour, which decreases to 10 km/h when passing places of interest, and in case you want to it is possible to reach maximum speeds of about 80-90 km/hour. RIB boat rides are also suitable for children.
Overall the ride is smooth and safe, with only you and the members of the crew present. That allows for you to stop wherever you like, for example, to take photos, and there is also the possibility to adjust the route according to your wishes if the schedule allows it. RIB boats are very stable, and travelling by a RIB boat is comfortable. RIB is shortened from Rigid Inflatable Boat.
RIB Boat rides are subject to availability. The shortest ride takes an hour, with getting prepared the whole experience takes about an hour and 15 minutes.
Choose your RIB Boat Tour from three different options:
– Helsinki Shoreline & Archipelago with RIB Boat (1 hour)
– Helsinki Ultimate Archipelago & Canals with RIB Boat (3 hours)
– Espoo Islands Excursion with RIB Boat (6 hours)
RIB boat rides to groups of 1 to 12 persons are available from June until the end of August, and if the weather permits they are also available in May and September.
