A live ip camera view will certainly have a good impact on the traffic on your website. In addition, the view from a live streaming cam , for example Finland :

  • enhances the content on the site as well as allows for the reception of the message;
  • captures customers from numerous places and additionally improves the possibility of finding you on the Internet;
  • retains prospective customers on the website;
  • strengthens the trust of online users in the viewed destination and even increases its fame;
  • it assists the marketing activities of tourism and also restaurant firms - a live streaming camera is going to be a superb addition to the web site of a facility for rent, ski resort, swimming pool, museum, zoo, botanical garden and a lot of other exciting facilities;
  • enables to check quickly plenty of essential info for visitors, for example climate, vehicle parking condition and even traffic in a particular town;
  • works well for attaining backlinks to your site - back-links leading to your site from some other sites, that means more efficient building of the position in Google;
  • might have educational worth if you intend to display various sights, e.g. nests of endangered species, breeding centres, bodies of water, parks, and many others.

You may shoot whatever you want. You are basically confined just by your will or... GDPR regulations. It's easy to add a live ip camera in your blog.

Sightseeing:

Helsinki is a marvelous city to see and very easy to get around in. Most of the sights are around Market Square, so that has to be your starting point. From there you can walk to Senate square, take a ferry to the fortress, wander about the many, many booths, shopping, having something to eat etc.

Helsinki is the gate between East and West. While it embodies much of the Finnish spirit and its progressive hi-tech push, it is unlike any other Finnish city, due in part to the fascinating combination of Swedish and Russian influences The city's urban lifestyle is flavored by the sea and surrounding nature. The summer heat and the midnight sun inspire the inhabitants to occupy the many parks and terraces. The city center is built around the main harbor where the famous Kauppatori (market square) - also known as the fish market – is located. The main streets include the twin shopping avenues of Pohjoisesplanadi and Eteläesplenadi. Helsinki offers a diverse cultural life, outstanding architectural gems and a full range of quality shopping opportunities. Examples of the world famous Finnish design is to be found anywhere in the city. The Finns are friendly people who speak good English, and Helsinki's relaxed atmosphere makes it easy for visitors to feel welcome.

The ticket costs 5 euros per person (So buy the day ticket instead!) and it is valid for 12 hours so you'll only need to buy it once. Once you get to the island, you are free to go anywhere. There are museums which charge a small fee.

The approximately 90-minute route includes stops at Helsinki's most famous city attractions, such as Senate Square/Helsinki City Museum, Market Square, Helsinki Art Museum (Amos Rex) and Museum of Contemporary Art Kiasma, Temppeliaukio Church (Rock Church), Sibelius Monument , Helsinki Zoo, Helsinki Olympic Stadium, Swedish Theater.

The fare rises gradually on a kilometer basis, as indicated by the meter, and depending on the number of passengers.

Welcome to the port of Helsinki!

The happiest city in the world and Europe’s northernmost capital, Helsinki is the largest city in Finland (with roughly 650 000 inhabitants) and one of the frequent stops in Scandinavia and Baltic cruise itineraries. Often considered the gate between the West and the East (Saint Petersburg is only 400 km/250 miles away), Helsinki features a blend of Western and Eastern cultural influences reflected in the city’s architecture and way of living.

Port of Helsinki

Get your cameras ready for magnificent photo opportunities of the beautiful landscapes as the cruise ship sails through the Finnish archipelago on the way to Helsinki! Port Helsinki is one of the busiest passenger ports in Europe and Finland’s largest cargo port. It consists of 4 cruise terminals: South Harbour, West Harbour, Katajanokka, and Hernesaari.

  • Hernesaari terminal – The majority of large cruise ships dock at Munkkisaari Quay (3 berths: LHB, LHC, and LHD), located approximately 3.5 km/2.2 miles away from the city center. The terminal consists of several facilities, including a tourist information booth, restrooms, free Wi-Fi, souvenir shops, and a taxi rank. If you decide to walk to the city center, it will take you approximately 30 to 45 minutes, or you can hop on buses #14 or #17 to take you downtown.
  • West Harbour – International cruise ships used to dock at Melkki Quay, located at the south end of the West Harbour, about 3 km/2 miles from Helsinki city center. However, West Harbour is nowadays mostly used by ferries, as the brand new ferry terminal has recently been built at the Lansisatama Quay . Here, you can take a 2-hour ferry ride to Tallinn . A new ferry terminal boasts modern facilities and great access to the city center by public transport.
  • South Harbour – This port consists of two terminals (three docks): Makasiini Terminal ( Pakkahuone Quay ) and Olympia Terminal ( Olympia Quay ) , located within a 10-minute walking distance from Market Square and Helsinki downtown. Smaller cruise ships usually dock at Pakkahuone Quay, where cruise passengers can find a tourist information desk, souvenir shops, restrooms, luggage lockers, and other terminal facilities.
  • Katajanokka – Located in the Katajanokka district, this terminal serves smaller cruise ships and ferry transportation to Tallinn, Estonia. You can find souvenir shops, ATMs, luggage lockers, and restrooms at the quay, as well as parking and a taxi rank. This terminal is located within a short walking distance from the main Helsinki highlights.

NOTE: Your cruise ship will most likely dock at Munkkisaari Quay (Hernesaari terminal) , as that one is mostly used by international cruise ships. Other harbors are mainly used for ferry transportation to Tallinn, Stockholm, Saint Petersburg, and other places.

10 Best Things to Do in the Port of Helsinki

Many attractions in Helsinki are located within reasonable walking distance from the city center. However, consider that ships have limited time in port, so it is always recommended to plan your day in advance. If it’s your first time here, consider taking a guided tour  to maximize your day ashore.

1. Temppeliaukio Church (Rock Church)

This unique church is located in the Töölö neighborhood right in the city center and represents of the most visited Helsinki attractions. It has an unusual, circular form and was carved out of solid rocks, which is why it is also known as the Rock Church. Covered by an impressive copper dome and boasting excellent acoustics, the church is a popular venue for concerts.

The entrance fee is 5€ and tickets can be purchased directly at the entrance of the Church. During the peak summer months, it is strongly recommended to book online to avoid the lines and waiting. There is no elevator inside the Church. Wheelchair users are welcome to the Church hall. Check out the official webpage for updated information https://temppeliaukionkirkko.fi/

2. Cathedral of Helsinki

This Lutheran Church, also known as the White Church, is located at Senate Square right in the heart of the city. Built between 1830–1852 as a tribute to the Grand Duke of Finland, Tsar Nicholas I of Russia, this monumental neoclassic cathedral is considered the unofficial symbol of the city. With an iconic green dome and marvelous architecture, this cathedral is a perfect blend of Eastern and Western architectural influences.

The imposing red-brick cathedral is located in the city center, only a 10-minute walk from Market Square and other city landmarks. The magnificent religious edifice sits on a hilltop overlooking the city and the harbor and is no less impressive than buildings on Moscow’s Red Square.

Do not miss the opportunity to visit inside and admire the rich collection of icons and Orthodox decorations.  Even though the Cathedral is closed on Mondays, it is well worth it to take a walk to see the Cathedral’s lavish exterior, a clear symbol of Russian influence in Finnish history.

The monument titled “Passio Musicae” was built by Eila Hiltunen in 1967 as a tribute to the Finnish composer Jean Sibelius. The impressive monument features over 600 steel tubes that capture the wind like a pipe organ.

However, this monument was the subject of critics among the Finnish people so the second sculpture of Sibelius was added to the memorial. To get to the monument, you can take bus #24 from Market Square (the trip can take up to 30 minutes).

This charming medieval town is the second oldest in Finland and a popular destination for tourists. Old Porvoo is known for its well-preserved 18th and 19th-century buildings and a 15th-century Cathedral. Enjoy a stroll through the narrow cobblestone streets and admire the colorful wooden houses, many of them converted into arts and crafts shops, souvenir stores, and cozy cafes. The red-painted riverside warehouses are one of the most photographed national landscapes in Finland.

Old Porvoo Village near Helsinki

Porvoo is located 52 km/32 miles away from Helsinki city center, approximately a 45-minute drive. Due to the limited time in port, I strongly suggest you book a shore excursion with your cruise line or an independent tour operator. If you would like to get to Porvoo on your own, you must take a bus from Kamppi bus station in Helsinki.

Port Helsinki

Port Helsinki is Europe's 2nd busiest passenger port - after Southampton England UK - handling around 11 million passengers (cruise and ferry) annually. In 2018, the seaport was ranked Europe's busiest in terms of passenger shipping volumes - handling in 2017 over 12,3 million passengers.

Vuosaari Harbour was opened in 2008. It handles only goods-shipping traffic for Greater Helsinki (metro region). This port section has 2 container terminals (West Harbour, Sornainen Harbour). The harbor covers a land area of 1,5 km2 (0,6 mi2) with additional 0,75 lm2 (0,3 mi2) business park adjacent to the harbor. City's "Ring 3" road network was extended and a new railway is now used for cargo transportation to and from Vuosaari Harbour.

West Harbour (Lansisatama, in Jatkasaari district) has 1 passenger and 1 cargo terminal. This port area includes Munkkisaari (cruise ships dedicated) pier. West Terminal (ferry terminal) serves mainly ferries to Estonia ( Tallinn ) and Russia ( Petersburg ). Most of the cruiseferries are operated by the companies ECKERO LINE and TALLINK-SILJA LINE (Estonian route) and St Peter Line (Russian route). Port's developments here included the building a residential complex for around 15,000 inhabitants. The land for this project is a former container traffic area (moved to Vuosaari). Helsinki Shipyard (in Hietalahti district) is adjacent to West Harbour but not considered part of the port.

Port's Olympia Terminal building (next to Port Authority company's headquarters) is listed as heritage site. Jatkasaari (part of Lansisatama and Kampinmalmi) is a new residential and office area developed at the site of port's ex-main container terminal (moved in 2008 to Vuosaari Harbour).

Cruise port's 2014 statistics showed a total of 240 ship calls and 408,900 passengers handled. In 2015 were handled 254 ship calls and 436,500 passengers. The most visited from Helsinki cruise port destinations are St Petersburg Russia , Gdynia-Gdansk Poland , Tallinn Estonia , Travemunde-Lubeck Germany , Stockholm Sweden and Warnemunde-Rostock (Germany) .

In 2016, Port Helsinki handled 11,56 million ferry passengers (3,1% increase over 2015). Of those, 8,74 million (4%) were traveling between Helsinki and Tallinn (almost 76% of all) and 2,34 million (0,7%) traveled on cruiseferries on the Helsinki-Stockholm route. The number of cruise ship tourists visiting the port in 2016 was 408,900 (6.3% decrease over 2015). In 2017, the ferry passenger traffic on the Helsinki-Tallinn route was increased. The ferry traffic to Sweden (Stockholm), Russia (St Petersburg) and Germany (Travemunde) remained stable. The international cruise shipping traffic increased to nearly 0,5 million.

In 2017, the total ship passengers increased by 2,4% (over 2016). The number of liner passenger traffic grew by 1,8%, (up to 11,8 million). Of those, 9 million (+3,2%) crossed on the Helsinki-Tallinn route, and 2,3 million on the Helsinki-Stockholm route. For season 2017, the cruise port had scheduled 270 ship calls (handled 266 total) with over 478,000 passengers (16,8% increase over 2016). A special day was May 31, when here met 5 cruise vessels ( AIDAmar , Le Soleal , MSC Magnifica , Norwegian Getaway , Ocean Dream ) disembarking over 11,000 tourists in total.

Among the seaport's main innovations implemented during its redevelopments in the last few years include:

  • Buffer zones at Vuosaari Harbour protect its existing "Natura 2000" natural reserve areas. These are green parks that buffer Vuosaari's housing developments and harbour areas. A new golf course was also created there.
  • New lighting scheme was developed and sound barriers were built. The sound wall is also the port's facade to the natural reserve. It reduces sound pollution from the harbor, integrates vegetation and also has a sightseen function.
  • An efficient automatic vehicle check-in system was installed (for trucks and cars) with waiting areas constructed outside the urban area (some are in the buffer zones). The new system allows ferry cargo traffic to be handled with less waiting times and areas required.

In 2017, Port Helsinki achieved record-breaking results in international freight traffic, with handled total tonnage/throughput 14,3 million tons (14,3% increase). Of those, 7,3 million were imports (13,2% increase) and 6,9 million exports (14,6% increase). The freight volume shipped in large-sized units was 11,89 million tons (12,5% increase). The container ship traffic volume was 491,000 TEU-containers (8,8% increase). The rubber-wheel traffic was 587,000 units (11,1% increase). In 2017, the cruise port handled 266 ship calls and nearly 478,000 passengers. During calls, cruise tourists spend an average EUR 64 per day visit (totaling ~EUR 32 million in FY2017).

The port's container terminals are managed (under long-term concession) by APM Terminals (30,75%, part of Global Ports Holding - the world's largest cruise port operator) and Delo Group (30,75%, Russia's biggest freight transportation and logistics company). These terminals are a joint venture of Global Ports (75%) and CMA Terminals Holding (25%, part of CMA CMG - the 3rd of the world's largest container shipping companies ).

In September 2020, the old crane at Multi-Link Terminals Helsinki was replaced with a new STS (ship-to-shore gantry crane custom-designed by Konecranes) that measures 40 m (boom length), 31 m (height) and has lifting capacity 70 tonnes. Multi-Link Terminal is also served by a modern RMG (Rail Mounted Gantry crane) which expedites the vessel handling process and reduces operating costs (via reduced personnel and equipment required). The new RMG has capacity to handle boxships with 14 TEU wide decks. In October 2020, the existing Liebherr crane was upgraded to 26,5 m (height) and 32,5 m (boom length).

In October 2018, the seaports Helsinki and Tallinn, together with the ferry companies Tallink , Viking Line and Eckero Line , received EUR 21,4 million as EU funding for passenger terminal and infrastructure developments as part of a TWIN-PORT project with total budget EUR 71,2 million and completed in 2023. By this project, Port Helsinki's West Harbour improved its transportation system to reduce congestion, noise and air pollution. At Port Tallinn's Old City Harbour was installed auto-mooring and shoreside power systems. The ferry port also constructed sewerages (at all passenger ship quays) to expand its wastewater service. The ferry companies retrofitted their Ro-Pax vessels to be able to shut down their auxiliary engines while docked, resulting in quiet operations and zero pollution at berths.

In May 2019, the Finnish company Damen Shipyards Group established its office in Helsinki. The company entered the passenger shipbuilding market (RoPax/ferry and cruise vessels) with the purchase of Damen Shipyards Mangalia (joint venture between Damen and Romania's Government). In Romani are constructed and launched ships' hulls and superstructures then tugged to other European yards (in France, Netherlands, Poland, Finland) for final outfitting. Damen's engineering teams are in Rotterdam Holland and Gdansk Poland . The company "Damen Engineering Helsinki Oy Ltd" has ~30 employees. Damen's new office is intended to showcase the company's products and services to both potential clients and local suppliers.

In June 2019, Elenger (2019-established brand/trademark/subsidiary of Eesti Gaas Group (Tallinn-headquartered Estonian natural gas company) started LNG bunkering in Port Helsinki. The first passenger ship bunkered by Elenger Finland was the cruiseferry Tallink Megastar (serving the route Helsinki-Tallinn). Ferry's truck-to-ship bunkering (by semi-trailers) is once a week (on Tuesdays) and takes approx 1 hour. Elenger delivers LNG (liquefied natural gas) to Helsinki from Novatek's new LNG plant in Vysotsk (Russia). Eesti Gaas runs Estonia's largest gas supply network and also serves the markets in Finland and Lithuania through pipelines. The company also sells electricity.

Helsinki Shipyard

This Finnish shipbuilding company "Arctech Helsinki Shipyard" was founded in 2011 as а subsidiary of JSC United Shipbuilding Corporation (USC) - a Russian state-owned company specializing in the construction and repairs of icebreakers and other icebreaking vessels, including gas tankers, platform supply- and standby ships.

Arctech Helsinki Shipyard is located in Hietalahti (downtown Helsinki). The company was established as joint venture between STX Finland and USC Russia. Operations at Hietalahti Shipyard started in April 2011 In 2014, USC Russia purchased the STX Finland shares (from its parent company STX Europe) and became the shipyard's sole owner.

In October 2018, USC announced that Hietalahti Shipyard would be sold to Algador Holdings Ltd. The sale was authorized by Russia's Government in April 2019. In May 2019, Arctech Helsinki Shipyard was sold to Algador Holdings Ltd - a Russian company owned by Rishat Bagautdinov and Vladimir Kasyanenko (owners of Vodohod River Cruises ). The company also owns Nevsky Shipyard LLC (1913-founded, located on Neva River in Schliesselburg, ~40 km to the north of Sankt Petersburg).

On May 20, 2019, Arctech Helsinki Shipyard was transferred to the newly-established company "Helsinki Shipyard Oy" that took over Hietalahti Shipyard's assets and operations. Arctech remained a subsidiary of USC Russia and continued its operations in Russia (at Nevsky Shipyard). The deal included EUR 35 million plus the ownership of Nevsky Shipyard LLC.

Helsinki Shipyard has a covered dock with capacity to build Panamax-sized ships (able to pass through Panama Canal ).

Finland's other two major shipbuilding yards are in Turku and Rauma .

In March 2023, Davie Shipbuilding (1825-founded, headquartered in Lauzon, Quebec Canada; a subsidiary of Chantier Davie Canada Inc) exercised an exclusive purchase option for the shipyard's assets. In April, the Canadian company signed a purchase agreement. for the Helsinki Shipyard and also a 50-year land lease deal with the city.

On November 3, 2023, Davie Shipbuilding announced the official acquisition of the Helsinki Shipyard Oy's assets from Algador Holdings. The deal was signed by James Davies (Davie Shipbuilding's CEO and President) and Kim Salmi (Helsinki Shipyard's Managing Director). The acquisition was supported by Québec's government with EUR 77 million (USD 110M), of which EUR 30M/US$43M equity investment and EUR 47M/US$67M loan.

Helsinki cruise terminal

Helsinki cruise port, as part of the seaport, is owned and operated by the Port Authority "Port of Helsinki Ltd" (state-owned company). There are all 4 docks serving cruise liners – West Harbour, Hernesaari, Katajanokka Quay, and South Harbour.

Hernesaari Terminal

Larger cruise ships dock at Munkkisaari Quay. The Helsinki cruise port terminal there is located at Hernematalankatu 6. The facilities/amenities include Wi-Fi Internet, tourist guides, phones, souvenir shop. The distance to Helsinki airport is 24 km (15 mi).

Cruise ships used Melkki Quay (in West Harbour) until 2019, as the area was planned to become maritime residential complex. Melkki Quay was replaced by a new cruise ship quay at Hernesaari. The new quay serves mainly larger liners (max LOA length 360 m / 1180 ft). Also, the passenger traffic to downtown is now handled more efficiently via a new tramline.

Port's cruise ship traffic was moved from South Harbour to West Harbour due to the vessels' growing size. Currently, Hernesaari and Lansisatama terminals handle around 90% of all international cruise passengers to Helsinki.

The new quay's construction started in 2017 and was completed in 2019. The LHD pier at Hernesaari Dock was officially inaugurated on April 30, 2019. New berth's first liner was  MSC Meraviglia . The ceremony was attended by Ms Pia Pakarinen (city's Deputy Mayor), Michele Francioni (MSC's Senior VP) and Ville Haapasaari (Port Helsinki's CEO).

Hernesaari Dock can handle cruise vessels with LOA length up to 360 m (1181 ft). All vessels 215 m (705 ft) or longer (serving over 90% of all passengers) berth at Helsinki's Hernesaari quarter.

West Harbour

There are 2 docks for cruise ships - Valtameri Quay and Melkki Quay. Both are at the south end of the port's West Dock. The distance to downtown is approx 3 km (2 mi). Shuttle bus services are provided. Passengers can also catch taxis or ferryboats to Market Square (Kauppatori).

Until 2019, cruise liners used Melkki Quay, as the area was planned to become a maritime residential complex, also offering boating and yachting services.

Katajanokka

Smaller-sized cruise ships dock at Katajanokka district’s end - at Katajanokanlaituri 2 Terminal. Its quays also serve ferries to Tallinn Estonia .

South Harbour

There are 2 docks (port's largest) in South Harbour - Pakkahuone Quay and Olympia Quay, both located in downtown and all attractions are at easy walking distance.

Helsinki Ferry Terminals

Helsinki Port has all 4 ferry terminals. Three are near the city's center (Katajanokka, South Harbour, West Harbour) and the 4th is Vuosaari. These ferry terminals handle ~11 million passengers plus ~1/4 of the port's freight traffic. RoRo traffic alone often brings daily up to 4000 vehicles to the city.

Helsinki's newest ferry terminal is Lansisatama (West Harbour).

West Terminal offers smooth shipping traffic operations and features a new automated vessel docking system (at quay LJ7) that uses vacuum technology to hold berthed vessels in place. There is also a new dual ramp that allows vehicles to be driven onto the ferry (RoRo ship) n 2 levels at a time.

The new ferry terminal project was started in January 2015. Its quays were completed in June 2015. West Terminal 2's construction works started in September 2015. Terminal's check-in car area was opened in May 2016. The new gate at West Harbour has automated identification and check-in. The gate is shared with the ferry companies.

The dual ram was built in December 2016. The Pihlajasaari bypass route was completed in December 2016. Passenger corridors was completed in December 2016 (LJ6) and March 2017 (LJ7 and LJ8).

Disembarkation bridges were installed in January 2017 (LJ7) and May 2017 (LJ8). The tram line to West Terminal 2 was opened for traffic in February 2017. West Terminal 2 complex (all infrastructure works) were completed in March 2017.

Among Port Helsinki's main contractors were the companies YIT Rakennus Oy, Alekon Holding AS, Adelte Ports & Maritime, Konepaja Survonen OyAro Systems Oy, NCC Roads Oy. Next YouTube video release by the port authority is also about Lansisatama (West Terminal 2).

Following the project's completion, were accomplished the following goals:

  • Car traffic was reduced via good public transportation links.
  • Waste water from the ships can be discharged free of charge at all its quays.
  • Ship-shore power is provided at all quays, thus reducing bad emissions.
  • Automated gate operations reduced port's congestion and vessel idling.
  • MoorMaster units (automated ship mooring) allows ships to be moored / unmoored more quickly, which reduces fuel consumption and bad emissions.
  • The new quays are located coherently to the ferry route, which leads to smoother shipping traffic and less bad emissions.
  • Terminal's power is generated by solar panels.
  • LNG refuelling is facilitated.

In order to handle more efficiently the ferry traffic, the port was also considering the option of building underground tunnels (going under dowtown Helsinki). However, this option implied huge investments and complex construction works, and was eventually discarded.

As the Helsinki port's ferry traffic is constantly increasing, a redistribution of the ferry terminals is also considered. Some ferry lines could be relocated to Vousaari. However, such decision would require the existing subway to be extended to the harbour area. However, this also is a huge investment, and difficult to justify for ferry passengers only.

Ferries are regularly scheduled as the city is visited not only by tourists (on short trips), but also by commuters living in Estonia and working in Finland.

Regularly scheduled ferries connect the city with Tallinn , Mariehamn Aland and Stockholm . Finnlines ferry ships (passenger and cargo) connects it to Gdynia, Travemünde and Rostock. The St Peter Line offers daily ferry service to St Petersburg.
