A boat transfer fee of 6.90 € per person (round trip) will be charged with the restaurant bill.

In June, July, and August, we will cover your connection boat fee on weekdays between 12:00 and 15:00. The benefit applies to customers arriving no later than 15:00 and includes a round-trip connection boat fare.

The island transfer boat departs from Ursin Pier (Ursininlaituri), located on Merisatamanranta behind Café Carusel, next to the Pihlajasaari ferry pier.

The transfer boat operates during the restaurant’s opening hours:

  • Departures at the hour, 20 minutes past, and 20 minutes to the hour.
  • The crossing takes approximately 2 minutes.

 

Example:
If your table reservation is at 5:00 PM, please take the 5:00 PM departure.

The boat accommodates 30 passengers at a time. During peak hours, the route operates continuously as needed.

The last transfer boat back to the mainland departs at 11:00 PM.

Guest boat berths for restaurant customers are located next to the transfer pier.

The transfer boat service and guest berths are operated by Ferra Oy.
