About the spot

Silversand lies on Hanko’s northern shore. The watersports area is beside the campsite beach; its confined, partly stony entry is not automatically beginner-friendly despite sandy sections.

Keep the bathing zone south of the markers clear. Watch the underwater metal fence, reef and shore trees; onshore sessions require reliable outward body-dragging.
