Najaden PIZZERIA
( 040-879-3630; www.najaden.fi ; opposite Nauvon Ranta 4;pizzas €9-12; noon-10pm)
Moored at the guest harbour, this stubby steamboat is now a 'sail-in' pizzeria. Dock along-
side it to pick up piping-hot, crispy-crust pizzas such as shrimp, feta and garlic, or chicken,
fiery jalapenos and salsa (you can also walk here and/or dine aboard), or just drop by for a
drink on the upper deck (the bar opens until late). Cash only.

The name might be French, but this two-storey spot at the guest harbour - with fine dining
upstairs, a casual bar downstairs and terraces on both levels that are heated in winter - in-
corporates influences from further afield: goatweed-pesto pasta, smoked salmon with
chive cream and smashed dill potatoes, lamb liver with onion and mash, and rhubarb pan-
nacotta.

Korpo
Korpo (Finnish: Korppoo) is the gateway for shipping out to Kökar on the Åland ar-
chipelago's southern route but it's remote enough to be an enjoyable stop in its own right.
The main harbour is Galtby, 3km east of Korpo village.
