Part of the archipelago off Ekenäs is a national park. The larger wooded islands and the general seascape are reachable by taxi boat. A sailboat or sea kayak is ideal to explore all of the archipelago.
Ekenäs Archipelago National Park is situated in the Ekenäs archipelago, in the Uusimaa region of Finland. It was established in 1989 and covers 52 square kilometres (20 sq mi). The park is maintained by Metsähallitus.

Raseborg Festival
Series of events including Raseborg's summer theatre, Midsummer festival, Medieval fair and tournaments in July, etc.
Visitor centre for Ekenäs Archipelago National Park. Information on the Baltic Sea and western Uusimaa archipelago. Also activities for children.
A pretty medieval castle (from 14th century). It was built near the sea shore, but due the post-glacial rise of land, it eventually lost its access to the sea and therefore also its strategic importance. Guided tours more or less weekly and on advance request (ask for English on booking, or the guide on public tours). Café Slottsknektens stuga (The Castle Guard's Lodge) near the ruin was open already in 1893 to serve tourists. Apart from offering refreshments (in season, hours somewhat shorter than the castle's), it sells tickets to the castle and provides local information. A beautiful forest path, Kärleksstigen (Lovers’ Walk), leads from the castle ruins to the folk museum "Snappertuna Forngård".
Cultural and environmental path (about 2.3 km) along the Läppträsket lake. Several ancient remains and nature attractions.
