Korpo

Korpo (Finland Swedish: [ˈkorpːu]; Finnish: Korppoo [ˈkorpːoː]) is an island located in the Turku archipelago.

On 1 January 2009, it was consolidated with Houtskär, Iniö, Nagu and Pargas to form the new town of Väståboland.

As of 1 January 2012, Väståboland was renamed Pargas (Parainen in Finnish), which is also the name of a town on one of the islands, which has proven somewhat confusing for tourists and visitors to the area.

Korpo is a favourite tourist destination in Finland and it is home to many summer cottages.

This is reflected in additional car ferries to and from the island operating in these months.
