People often speak of old Vuosaari and new Vuosaari but this rough distinction only vaguely describes how Vuosaari consists of several structurally distinctive residential areas. Vuosaari offers suitable and appealing residential areas for single city dwellers and senior citizens alike, for people who live in detached houses and enjoy their peace and own space, and for young families who want to live in a safe environment near nature.

Woods, parks and the sea
Vuosaari has plenty of green spaces: recreational and walking areas and parks, where people pick berries and mushrooms, and do cross-country skiing and other exercise. Vuosaari is also known for its many beach areas. Aurinkolahti is the newest of them; Kallvikinniemi with its sandy beaches and ridge views is the oldest and best-known. Vuosaari has a total of six boat harbours that boat enthusiasts can choose from and almost 30 kilometres of coastline.

Sports and culture
The redeveloped sports ground and sports park at Heteniityntie offer good exercise facilities and it is the home of the locals' favourite sports club, Vikings of Vuosaari. Vuosaari Sports Centre contains, among other facilities, swimming pools, two gyms and a sports hall.

Vuotalo, or Vuosisaari House, is a cultural centre completed in 2002. It is a hub of cultural activities where you can find a modern public library, exhibition spaces and a hall for a variety of music and theatre performances. Nearby is the Swedish-speaking community centre Rastis that offers a wide range of multicultural events and activities in addition to its Swedish-language programme.

Tourism
Vuosaari is also known to many travellers and tourists. The Rastila Camping Site is situated by the sea on the grounds of the Rastila Manor and next to an underground station. Vuosaari also has three seaside hotels with conference facilities.
