places to eat and sleep for all tastes
The popularity of the archipelago as a visitor destination increases every year. In Korpo you will find several popular restaurants & comfortable places to stay. It is advisable to be early if you want to stay overnight in Korpo during the high season, but spontaneous visitors may be lucky and find available beds even then. It's always a good idea to contact local businesses and check the situation. Many are also open all year round, so why not visit the archipelago in the off-season to enjoy the real archipelago life!
