The Creative Edge
HAILOUTO: Ferry crossing to the island for a guided visit of the Marjaniemi fishing village followed by lunch and a guided visit to an organic brewery with tasting. (B/L) 68 mi / 110 km.
TOUR HIGHLIGHT - NATURAL WONDERS: Hailuoto is the largest island in the Bothnian Bay. The island started to rise from the sea approximately 2,000 years ago and continues to do so. Eventually the island will adjoin mainland as the rising shoreline is constantly changing to form a living conservation area. The manmade environment in Hailuoto, characterized by well-preserved traditional buildings, together with its unique natural features, has earned Hailuoto the designation as one of Finland's national landscapes—and the only national landscape covering the entire municipality.

TOUR HIGHLIGHT - LEGENDS & LORE: About a hundred years ago, a passer-by started spreading the word about the true location of Santa's real home. Since then, Santa has traveled to the Arctic Circle to meet with kids from 1 to 92 to hear Christmas wishes in his remote Santa's Village in Rovaniemi. Enjoy a visit with Old St. Nick and receive your official Arctic Circle Certificate documenting your crossing this hemispheric line.
