Visiting Helsinki need recommendations

My first post on this subreddit hello everyone.

I’m visiting Helsinki with my gf on the 23rd May for the weekend and leaving Monday the 25th.
What are some of the best experiences to enjoy here? I’ve booked a nice meal at a restaurant already.

I also want to visit Suomenlinna and walk around and explore this amazing place.
Question: what is what’s the best time of day to visit? How long will it take to explore? Any particular sites which are a must view?

My gf also wants to take a ferry to Tallinn and explore the city. This is a must for her.
Question: how long will this take? This is a day trip? What’s the cheapest way to travel here from Helsinki and back? Anything must do?

I have booked a sauna visit where we also get massages. Finland is one of the places I’ve always wanted to visit and it’s a shame I only have a weekend this time. Anything else you guys can recommend to eat / experience?

Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to reply, much appreciated 😊
