Kalajoki Marina

Kalajoki Marina is a high-class, maritime boating and recreation centre being built in the Hiekkasärkät tourist centre. The aim is to build the most versatile, 150-seat guest marina in the Bothnian Bay area, with a target draught of at least 3 m.

The Kalajoki Marina will contribute to the awareness, growth and internationalisation of tourism along the entire Finnish coastline and strengthen the position of Hiekkasärkät as one of the most attractive maritime tourist centres in the Nordic countries. The Marina area is targeted for quality holiday homes, hotels, restaurants and new maritime activities. Modern holiday homes have already been completed and the guest marina will be completed towards the end of 2025.

A tourist's maritime living room

Good food, entertainment and a maritime atmosphere

The Marina tourist area is an attractive destination for international tourists, holidaymakers and locals, full of maritime atmosphere and a wide range of services. It is an oasis on the north coast, a place to stay and enjoy!

The aim is to build not only modern boating facilities but also a comprehensive range of water sports and marine nature activities. The Marina's restaurant, recreational and accommodation options will cater for the most demanding tastes!

A quality holiday destination in a seaside setting close to services

Golf, fine dining, a spa and shopping centre - or the peace and quiet of nature!

The Hiekkasärkät area attracts an increasing number of tourists every year and no wonder. In addition to a wide range of leisure and recreational opportunities, the comprehensive services, the stunning seaside with its dunes and the forested nature attract visitors to enjoy a destination that is unique in Finland. Kalajoki is also within easy reach of tourists from larger towns and cities.

Marina Dyynikylä is close to all the best that Kalajoki has to offer. Right next door are the beautiful sandy beach, outdoor trails and a golf course, the warm waters of the spa, a comprehensive range of restaurants and entertainment, and the meeting place Loisto’s services. Children will enjoy the JukuPark water park, the Sani Spa Hotel and the adventure park Pakka.

Kalajoki is the place to be all year round!
