Finland’s best place to experience bird nesting!


Eider Safari to Bengtskär Lighthouse


May 2026


Spring’s most extraordinary archipelago adventure awaits!


In the outer archipelago, Bengtskär transforms into a vibrant kingdom of birds — a safe haven for hundreds of nesting eider females, where life bustles all around you.


Join us on our safe and comfortable vessel as we travel through sheltered island routes toward the lighthouse island. Along the way, you will see seabirds and often seals. Spring smells of the sea, gulls cry overhead, and the archipelago comes alive.


At Bengtskär, we enjoy the lighthouse kitchen’s famous wild-fish soup with archipelago bread, followed by fresh pastry and lighthouse coffee – the best flavours of the islands.



Why is the Eider Safari unforgettable?

  • Hundreds of nesting eiders around the lighthouse island
  • A unique nature experience found nowhere else in Finland
  • Warm and comfortable vessels – even on chilly spring days
  • Experienced guides share stories of the archipelago, the birds and Bengtskär’s history
  • Delicious archipelago lunch at the lighthouse
  • A safe and easy day trip suitable for all ages


The magic of May

Early May: courtship displays, migratory birds, striking eider drakes
Late May: newly hatched chicks and eider families up close


You will feel nature’s pulse and the awakening of the archipelago in a way that words cannot fully capture.


Join us and experience the most powerful nature event of the spring.


Reserve your place early – departures fill up quickly.
