Naantali-Turku-Naantali summer cruises from Tuesday to Saturday

On the outward journey (Turku-Naantali), a classic fish soup lunch is served with summer’s new potatoes and salmon smoked at Loistokari. A vegetarian option is also available. Lunch also includes island bread, sea buckthorn butter, coffee/tea and an ice cream cone for children. For those with a sweet or savoury appetite, there is a display case with filled sandwiches, pastries and ice cream. Ukkopekka has full dispensing rights.
