Dog-friendly beaches/swimming areas in Helsinki?

Post by Abeyance » Mon Feb 11, 2013 11:43 am

Hi all,

I know it's not even close to the warmer months yet with all the recent slush-type snow, but we have just invested (rather foolishly) in a life jacket for our corgi in the hope that we would all be able to go swimming in the summer months. I was wondering if there are any dog friendly swimming areas/beaches in or around Helsinki? The only beach I know of close-by is Hietaniemi but I'm pretty sure dogs aren't allowed there unless there's a small section where this doesn't apply as I've seen one or two dogs on the fringes?

Many thanks,
Abeyance :)!
