Sebbholmen EcoCamp offers you accommodation with sea view in small cottages or Tentsile wood-tents, hanging between trees. You can swim in the Baltic Sea or hire a rowing boat or a kayak and take a tour on the glittering waves.
The fishing village Rosala, founded in the Viking age, is only a short walk away from Sebbholmen. The Viking Centre has exhibitions about the Viking age in Finland and in the archipelago. There is also a café and possibilities to hire bicycles. In the summer you can take a day trip to Bengtskär lighthouse.
In addition to exhibitions the Viking Centre has reconstructed Viking age houses, for example a chieftain’s hall and a merchant’s house. You can take part in Viking activities and try helmets and swords.
A few kilometres to the North of Rosala village you can find a bakery, a beer brewery and a restaurant called Rousal Brygghus. The restaurant is open in the summer. You can get Rousal beer also from cafés and shops in the region.
