South Harbour

Helsinki, Uusimaa, Finland · pier

South Harbour is a bay and harbour area immediately next to the centre of the city of Helsinki, Finland. 4.7 million passengers in liner traffic and about 37,000 international cruise passengers travel through it every year. Also over million tonnes of unitized cargo passes through the South Harbour. Most of the harbour's traffic is to Stockholm, Sweden and Tallinn, Estonia, and cruises. In summertime, there is also much small ship traffic. During the winter time, excess snow from snow removal may be disposed of in the harbor. As of 2020, the Carmel, an old vessel, was keeping the harbor open by circling 400 times within 24 hours.
