Arctic Watersports Day is a fun day at Rahajärvi lake including SUP, Snorkeling and tent sauna. For over 12-year-olds there is an optional Scuba Diving intro possibility.
The first exhilarating activity of the day is stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) on the tranquil lake, where participants can enjoy the Arctic scenery as they navigate the waters. The SUP tour caters to both beginners and experienced paddlers, making it an inclusive and enjoyable experience for all. Afterward, the group gathers for a 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 the Rahajärvi lake. While not as colorful as tropical destinations, the lake’s historical underwater trees makes snorkeling on 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 delivers a rejuvenating experience that perfectly rounds off a memorable day in northern Lapland.
