The Finnish archipelago is a magnificent natural wonder. There are tens of thousands of islands. Many of them are tiny islets, but there are also hundreds of large, inhabited islands.
The core part of the Finnish archipelago can be roughly divided into two parts. There’s the autonomous Åland between Finland and Sweden and the Turku archipelago closer to the coast, in front of its namesake city.
If you want to go on a truly epic island-hopping trip, you can combine Åland and the Turku archipelago, spending the whole summer traveling from one island to another, searching for your favorite.
