In English:

In February we visited the Arctic beach of Nallikari in Oulu again, but this time in Winter. The scenery was very different from that which we saw in summer. Due to snow it was very difficult to detect where the beach ended and where the sea started.

Was there anything than snow to see? Yes. Winter bikers, bathing huts, ice breaker, empty life guard’s hut, some ice fishers, tracks of bike’s winter tires, hays that Winter was not crushed. So small things, but our expectation were not big.

En español:

En febrero volvimos a visitar la playa Ártico del Nallikari en Oulu nuevamente, pero esta vez en invierno. El paisaje era muy diferente de lo que vimos en verano. Debido a la nieve que era muy difícil de detectar, donde terminó la playa y donde se inició el mar.

¿Había algo más que la nieve para ver? Sí. ciclistas de invierno, casetas de baño, el rompehielos, la caseta vacía de guardia de la salvavidas, pesca en hielo, pistas de neumáticos de invierno de bicicleta, herbes que el invierno no fueron aplastada. Tan pequeñas cosas, pero nuestra expectativa no eran grandes.

En francais:

Y avait-il quoique ce soit que plus la neige pour voir? Oui. cyclistes d’hiver, cabines de bain, brise-glace, la hutte de vide de surveillant de baignade, pêche sur glace, pistes de pneus d’hiver de vélo, herbes que l’hiver n’a pas été écrasé. Donc, peu de choses, mais notre attente était pas grand..

Em Português:

Em fevereiro visitamos a praia Ártico de Nallikari em Oulu novamente, mas desta vez no inverno. O cenário era muito diferente do que vimos no verão. Devido a neve, era muito difícil de detectar onde a praia terminou e onde o mar começou.

Houve alguma coisa que a neve que a ver? Sim. ciclistas de inverno, quebra-gelo, o cabine vazio de nadador-salvador, cabanas vazios de banho , pesca no gelo, faixas de pneus de inverno de bicicleta, as fenos que o inverno não foi esmagado. Então, coisas pequenas, mas a nossa expectativa não eram grandes.

- Hello Ute.
  
  How cold – my wife checked it from her daily diary and she said -7C, but there was cold wind, which made it feel colder on the skin. In Finland we have always check the real feel in winter due to cold wind. Thank You for Your kind comment.
  
  Have a nice day!

What a contrast from summer to winter! I like the bikers silhouetted against the snow and white sky. The bikes look quite heavy duty, they must be built especially for snow riding. Beautiful photos!

Comment by Marilyn Albright — March 15, 2016 @ 14:56 | Reply
- Hello Marilyn.
  
  Contrast is indeed great. I think that those bikes are some kind of mountain bikes with “huge” tires. Winter biking is very popular in Oulu. When next winter starts, I’ll present winter biking photos.

Icy, icy – but so beautifull! And so different from your summer photos, Matti! You really can’t recognize the end of the beach and the beginning of the sea. Impossible.
Apart from your gorgeous snow photos I really enjoy to see your great photo of the ice breaker! Impressive! I admire the cyclists in the snow but I notice that their tyre tread ist very special and marked. It surely gurantees a rather good grip.

Thanks for showing the artic beach in winter! I enjoyed it very much! – Have a nice week, Michèle

  Thank you. You have noticed many things in my post. Because winter biking is very popular in Oulu, I have decided to make a post about and publish it in the beginning of next winter. 🙂 Icebreaker waited that ships, which need assistant, call it to help them to pass thru in the ice.

Looks like a very moody day. Does the sea freeze where the shallow water meets the beach?

Comment by Janice / Dancing with Sunflowers — April 6, 2016 @ 12:18 | Reply
- Hi Janice.
  
  Sea freezes when it is enough cold and it starts from the beach. In the North, like this beach, it is thoroughly frozen in January and February. For example in Kemi, 100 km / 62 mi to the north of Oulu, cruises on an icebreaker start sometimes in January. Melting starts sometimes in March. Thank You commenting.

Catching up on a few missed posts from you. I really like the clean, solitude of the artic beach in winter. Curious as to the temperature, as it looks comfortably frozen. The previous post about the re-frozen water, has a worry to it, with the ice cracks, and mushy food-prints. And the colorful costumes in the post after that were impressive. Great pictures, nice background. Marty 🙂 (Nice blue skies, and impressive quality from the i-phone too

Oh this is just wonderful! I love going to the beach in the winter (more than in the summer!) but I’ve never seen anything like this, especially the bicycles!!

- Hello Letizia.
  
  When next winter starts, I will post “special report” about winter biking. My post is already ready, but as I said, I will publish it later. All photos are from Oulu in which winter biking is popular. I am glad that You loved my post. Thank you.
  
  Happy Midsummer.

My goodness! What a stark but beautiful contrast to the summer photos! Even so, it looks as though there are plenty of opportunities to enjoy the area.

  Thank You for Your kind comment. I checked where New Smyrna Beach is. I have not visited. We have visited in Florida, West Palm Beach and Lantana and riding around in Florida. Gorgeous place there.
  
  Happy weekend.

These are lovely. I especially like the the ones with the bathing cabanas.
