Why Naantali Old Town matters

The old town of Naantali is small and perfect for an unhurried afternoon. Narrow lanes lead between wooden houses in warm colours, past tiny shops and cafés, down to a harbour full of boats. The convent church, from the medieval period, sits at the heart. In summer ice cream queues form along the quay.

Talking points

  • Painted wooden houses line the narrow lanes.
