Pikkukoski beach

Service location

Pikkukoski beach is a soft, sandy beach, but the area also has large lawn areas as well as fields and courts for games. The water gets deeper quickly, and the river may have strong currents. The beach is along River Vantaanjoki, about a 20-minute walk from the Oulunkylä train station.

You can check the water quality, temperature and blue-green algae situation of the beach via the ulkoliikunta.fi ...
