Manamansalon Portti is on the stunning island of Manamansalo in the middle of Lake Oulujärvi. There are caravan pitches on the pine slopes and on the shore of Martinlahti bay. Manamansalon Portti also has a guest harbour and a village shop. And it’s right next to the beach. We rent fatbikes and canomarans, and also snowshoes in late winter.
