Kesäkuukausia

Kesäkuukausia is a term used in Finnish to refer to the summer months, specifically June and July. These months are characterized by long daylight hours, warm temperatures, and various seasonal activities. June is often considered the start of summer in Finland, with the longest day of the year occurring in late June. July is typically the warmest month, with average temperatures ranging from 15 to 20 degrees Celsius. During kesäkuukausia, Finns engage in numerous outdoor activities such as swimming, hiking, and camping. Festivals and events also abound, including the famous Midsummer celebrations on June 24th, which feature bonfires, traditional foods, and dancing around the maypole. The summer months are also a time for relaxation and enjoying the natural beauty of Finland's lakes, forests, and coastal areas. Despite the warmth, it is important to stay hydrated and protect oneself from the sun's rays during this period.
