Arctic Watersports Day

Enjoy Paddleboarding, an Open Fire Lunch, and a Finnish Tent Sauna

5 hours

Arctic Watersports Day is a fun day at Rahajärvi Lake that includes SUP, snorkeling, and a tent sauna. For those over 12 years old, there is an optional scuba diving intro available.

The first exhilarating activity of the day it stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) on the tranquil lake, where participants can enjoy the Arctic scenery as they navigate the water. The SUP tour caters to both beginners and experienced paddlers, making it an inclusive and enjoyable experience for all. Afterward, the group gather for lunch, providing an opportunity to recharge and socialize with fellow adventurers. Once lunch is finished, the day's excitement continues with snorkeling.

The Arctic Watersports Day includes an intriguing snorkeling session that allows participants to explore the underwater wonders of Rahajärvi Lake. While not as colorful as tropical destinations, the lake's historical underwater trees make the snorkeling along the lake shores very exciting.

After the snorkeling adventure, participants have the opportunity to unwind and warm up in a traditional Finnish tent sauna. Situated in the heart of nature, the tent sauna provides a rejuvenating experience that perfectly round off a memorable day in northern Lapland.
