Moomin World is a theme park located on the island of Kailo in Naantali, Finland, dedicated to Tove Jansson’s Moomin characters. Unlike conventional amusement parks, it features no mechanical rides, focusing instead on immersive storytelling and character encounters. The park is home to the iconic five-story Moominhouse, which visitors can explore room by room. Guests follow a nature trail through the wooded island to discover various character-themed dwellings. The experience is designed to reflect the philosophy and gentle tone of the original books. The park operates as a seasonal attraction situated within the Finnish archipelago.

Wear comfortable, sturdy walking shoes, as the island's paths are largely unpaved and uneven.
Check the daily program at the entrance to align your visit with specific character performances at the Emma Theatre.
Bring a backpack with water bottles and snacks, as the island layout requires significant walking between character homes.
Do not rush through the island; the park experience is designed to be slow-paced, and attempting to see everything in two hours will likely result in missing the interactive character events.
Open primarily during the summer season; closed during autumn, winter, and early spring.
Casual, outdoorsy clothing appropriate for weather changes; respect the personal space of the characters as per park guidelines.
