The Blue Spring Beach

The Blue Spring Beach, or in Finnish, Sinilähteen Uimaranta is a nice, sandy beach in a pine peninsula by the Ruukinpohja part of lake Päijänne in Heinola. Conveniently reachable from the highway, I used it as a cleansing opportunity from the dirt and sweat gathered on my caving expedition (link, alt. link).

The coordinates are N 61.193121 E 25.983280. There's ample parking by the boat harbor just before the beach. There is no official page, but a bit more information here.
