The fishing area

The water, fishing and key local conditions at a glance.

The water

Villa Hiekkaranta stands on a beautiful private sandy beach directly on the main waters of Lake Simpelejärvi. From the private pier you can head straight onto the lake without canals, boat transport or trailering. The lake offers varied fishing close to the villa, with islands, shallow bays, reefs, underwater humps and drop-offs. Open water and deeper structures are excellent for jigging and vertical fishing, while island shores, bays and reed beds are productive areas for pike. Fully equipped fishing boats are delivered directly to the villa's private pier with full tanks, charged batteries and fishing electronics ready to use.
