Beach, dance pavilion and nature trail by Littoistenjärvi. The lake is shallow, which makes the beach ideal for smaller children. It also makes the water warm early in the summer. There are sometimes water quality problems. There's a dog haven by the beach.

Social dancing and dance courses by Sekahaku at a lakeside dance pavilion from 1950. The dance nights begin with a 1½-hr dance course included in the price, for one dance, beginning with the basics but advancing quickly with something also for advanced dancers. Live music the rest of the night: foxtrot, tango, waltz, jive, cha-cha etc., with slight overweight for the dance taught. Friendly atmosphere and many skilled dancers. Kiosk with coffee, water (free), sausage, sandwiches etc. in the dance nights, other times you should bring your own water bottle. First set of the dance proper is in random pairs (just one dance each), second men's, third women's, last mixed asking. The tango king and queen of the year perform at some dance (2026: 23 July). Separate dance courses M–W evenings and Su afternoons in season. Some courses start from the basics (perusteet M 18:00 Su 17:45, perusteita uusille harrastajille W 19:45 Su 16:00), otherwise knowing basics of the dance is assumed (keskitaso=intermediate; jatko=advanced). The "perusteita uusille" courses are primarily for those who haven't danced much at all (youth price for all). Numbered courses are sets, but attending just one part is OK. Regardless of level, some participants are skilled (mostly Sekahaku members), which eases learning. During the course, pairs are formed in a rotating system, so you can turn up alone or in a single-gender group (you may form your own pairs, but that is usually not optimal). Instruction is in Finnish, so you have to use your eyes and occasionally ask your pair.
Bird sanctuary by Lake Littoistenjärvi. Nature path (between Järveläntie and the Littoistenjärvi beach) and bird watching tower.
Cinema with bar and five auditoriums. Accessible by wheelchair. At some showings the auditorium is included in the licensed premises, and thus the age limit 18 applies regardless of the film. The non-Finnkino company has cinemas also in Turku (Diana, age limit 18), Salo (Lumo) and Laitila (Laitilankino), with the same multi-use tickets.
