Visitors can wander through wooden market stalls filled with local crafts, gifts, and seasonal delicacies set against the backdrop of Old Rauma. An outdoor hearth allows guests to warm up and grill their own or purchased snacks, while a covered shelter and an enclosed licensed area offer seating. The stage hosts live performances throughout the season, and Santa Claus regularly drops by to meet visitors.
