Boat berths and services for boaters

More than a thousand boat berths are available in the harbours of Vesijärvi, Teivaa and Niemi. In addition to those, Lahti has a thousand rowing boat berths on the shores of different lakes. Book a berth electronically using the reservation service.

Re-booking your current berth

The re-booking period for current customers’ old berths is from 9 am on 10 March to 31 March 2020.

The berths are booked and paid for either in the electronic reservation service on the ‘E-services and feedback’ section or at the Lahti-Piste service cash desk, Lahti’s Palvelutori service centre, Trio Shopping Centre, Aleksanterinkatu 18.

– Check the opening hours of Lahti-Piste at Palvelutori

– The cash desk charges a service charge of €5. No invoices will be sent.

Booking berths as a new customer

Vacant boat berths can be booked in the electronic reservation service from 9 am on 7 April 2020 onwards. You can browse these berths on the list of berths or the map, where the vacancies are displayed in real time. Berths with the text ‘Valitse’ (Select) are available for booking.

The program searches for a suitable berth based on the width, length and draft of the boat (sailboats) and gives the price.

Do this

When making your reservation, have the information of your boat at hand.

The berth is paid for in the electronic service as an online payment, for which you must have an online banking service and the associated credentials.
