How do you get to Vuosaari Harbour in Helsinki by public transport?
Reaching the Hansa Terminal for the Germany ferry.
Short answer
Port of Helsinki says the Hansa Terminal is in Vuosaari Harbour, about 3 kilometres from the nearest metro station, Vuosaari. Buses 90 and 90A leave from Vuosaari metro station to the harbour, and bus 818 runs from Mellunmäki metro station. Bus 90A also goes straight to the Railway Station, about 23.6 km away. To the airport, Port of Helsinki suggests going to the Railway Station first and then taking bus 600 or commuter trains I or P. The port's visitor guide says bus 90 runs about every 8–10 minutes between the metro station and the harbour.
Why
- Bus 90 or 90A from Vuosaari metro.
- Bus 90A also from the Railway Station.
- About 3 km from the metro.
