TRAVELING TO FINLAND AND SIPOO

Finland, the land of thousands of lakes and the land of Santa Claus. Yeah, you’ve heard it all before, right? We are pretty confident that you can use Google if you are interested in the history of our country, the most peculiar stats or the political system. What you might not find that easily by Googling is the practical stuff: what kind of weather to expect, how to get around during the tournament, where to stay, how much money to reserve for a dinner in a restaurant etc. We have tried to gather here the most useful stuff but in case there is something you’re missing, just give us a shout.

Main center of Tyyni is located in Sipoo which is the Eastern neighbor of Finland’s capital, Helsinki.

We have gathered a map of Tyyni places and other interesting and useful information on this map.

HOW TO GET THERE AND AROUND

Several airlines operate to Helsinki airport. We strongly recommend a rental car and/or shared rides, as the public transportation connections to all the tournament sites are not the most convenient if any.

Please use Google Maps when planning on where to stay so you can get an idea of how long it takes to travel to each course etc.

PRICE LEVELS IN FINLAND

Compared to most European countries, Finland is a rather expensive place. To get an idea and to plan your budget, check out some average prices from:

In Finland, it is not customarily to leave tip in restaurants, and another useful thing to know is that our tap water is totally drinkable and extremely good as well, so feel free to fill out your bottles with the tap water!

Sipoo does not really make difference to the price level, expect to pay the same what you pay in Helsinki.

THE WEATHER

The weather in Southern Finland in June is the warmest you can get in this latitude. Average temperate during the day is around 18 Celsius. During the daytime, you should expect temperatures from 15 to 25 Celsius. Bring your shorts but as a backup, remember to pack a hoodie.

WHERE TO STAY

There are several hotels around the capital area, but the most convenient one for you might not be the one in the center of Helsinki unless you especially want to spend time checking out the sights in there. As the courses are located in Sipoo, Kerava and Espoo, we suggest looking for accommodation in Eastern Vantaa, nearby the airport, in Eastern Helsinki or in Sipoo. You can use search engines such as Trivago, Booking.com or Hotels.com to look for the hotel. In addition to the hotels, do check out Airbnb as there are lots to choose from in there as well.
