Finland itinerary advice: Hanko vs. Rauma

Hello! We are headed to Finland in June for 11 nights total and have plans to stay in Helsinki and Turku. We wanted to add a smaller coastal city to the mix and was wondering if Hanko or Rauma would be better?

FYI: we are both nature lovers into hiking and birdwatching and possibly interested in doing a guided kakaying trip. We are also traveling entirely by public transportation so we need to be able to get there via train or bus. Thanks so much for any insights!

If you're looking for a small coastal town my suggestion would actually be Ekenäs. Although Raumo has a nice well preserved old wooden city centre. If you're willing to travel a bit further you can also consider Mariehamn.
