The eastern part of Uusimaa is just a stone’s throw from Helsinki and quick to reach by car, bus, or a ship line in the summer. Did you know that the HelsinkiEast area features more than 30 small ports for visiting by boat? Angle your bow towards the ports of HelsinkiEast!

Good food is a tradition in the eastern Uusimaa region, and there are plenty of quality restaurants all around the area. Especially Porvoo has become one of the gourmet towns in Finland, and many of its restaurants use more and more local ingredients. The old town of Porvoo alone encompasses 16 restaurants and cafes – in 1957 there were none! (Source http://vanhaporvoo.org/Pdf_files/Lehti%20nr%2062.pdf) Today local restaurants offer a wide selection of menus and present fresh flavors as well as the latest food trends on your plate.
