Lake Saimaa is best experienced from the water. Alongside our open canoes, we also explore the lake aboard Juno, our fishing boat. Before joining Uhkua, Juno spent her working days on Lake Puruvesi as a vendace fishing boat. Today she carries guests at the same unhurried pace, inviting you to slow down and enjoy the beauty of Lake Saimaa.

Juno takes small groups to the islands and shores of Lake Saimaa for nature experiences, island dinners and tailor-made cruises. Choose from our ready-made experiences or let us create a customised cruise just for your group. We can also arrange light meals on board or at destination. Juno can accommodate up to 12 guests. For the most comfortable experience, we recommend groups of 6–8 people.

From our home harbour in Nikinsalmi, we can follow the scenic Vuoltee route through the Vuoltee Canal to the open waters of Louhivesi, explore the rocky shores of Yövesi, or create a route tailored to your wishes.

Get in touch and we’ll help you plan your day on Lake Saimaa.
