Santa's Seaside Office

Kemi's newest attraction, opened in 2017, is Santa's Seaside Office – a collection of cute red-painted timber buildings overlooking the waterfront, which house a gift shop, a cafe and, from Thursday to Saturday afternoons, Santa himself. Activities include writing a letter to Santa and sealing it in a bottle, elf sailor workshops and gingerbread decorating. Prices for individual activities vary.
