About Kuopionlahden venesatama
Known for sailing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces SE, so wind from the NW blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).
A harbour, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing SE. Wind from the SE blows onshore, wind from the NW blows out to sea, and wind from the SW or NE runs along the shore. We found no boat hire, sailing school or club within 10 km on the map, so bring your own boat here. The town to stay in is Kuopio. Within 5 km we also list 6 wind sports spots, 1 dive site, 1 kayak spot and 1 mountain bike area.
The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
