Kruunuvuorenselkä, Fjard inlet near Laajasalo district in Helsinki, Finland.

Kruunuvuorenselkä stretches 5 kilometers in length and 2.5 kilometers in width between central Helsinki and its eastern districts, bordered by multiple islands.

The waterway has functioned as a vital maritime route through the Kustaanmiekka strait, connecting Helsinki's harbor to the Gulf of Finland for centuries.

The inlet forms a natural division between Helsinki's urban center and residential areas, shaping the maritime character of Finland's capital city.

The waterway maintains navigation channels of 9.3 meters depth, enabling year-round maritime traffic including ferry services between Helsinki's center and surrounding islands.

The construction of Kruunuvuorensilta bridge across the inlet, beginning in 2021, will create Finland's longest bridge at 1,200 meters with a 135-meter central pylon.
