The large islands of Kotkansaari and Mussalo are located at the Gulf of Finland in the Baltic Sea. They are connected by a bridge that goes across the sea from the island of Hirssaari to the island of Norssaari. Here are pictures from and around the bridge across the sea.
To the east from the bridge is the island of Kotkansaari. At the western part of the island, the indrustial area of Länsisatama is visible. The forest near the Katariina Park is visible to the right of the indrustial area in the picture.



At the Norssaari island, a tire was floating at the coast. I tought that I could take a nice picture of it, but the tire was located at a place where the coast was a steep cliff. Because of this, I had to hold my phone so that I could not see the screen. As a result, the picture was at a weird angle and the focus is not on the tire. I still like the picture enough to put it here.

To the south is the Gulf of Finland and a view of the Baltic Sea. The islands of Kotkansaari and Mussalo extend further south and the sea is only visible between them.


As an extra, here is a picture from the mouth of the Kymi River in Lankila. Mussalo island is the large area of land far and to the right in the picture. The bridge across Kotkansaari and Mussalo, where I took the above pictures, is in this picture, but is difficult to see with this quality.
