Vaasa offers varying possibilities to take exercise, yourself, or your can watch others do it. You can take part in the international walking event Vaasan Marssi, which is a unique walking event in Finland. If you or your children are interested in football then Vaasa is where you should be in the beginning of July at Wasa Footballcup, a youth football tournament! Some 250 teams representing countries in Scandinavia and Europe, participate in what we hope will be an unforgettable junior tournament.

It is also possible to dive into the sea almost in the centre of Vaasa! If you prefer warmer water you can swim in the indoor pool. Or you can go to Tropiclandia Water Park!
