Saaremaa

Saaremaa is the largest island in Estonia. From the mainland, it can be reached by ferries sailing from the city of Virtsu to its neighbor, the island of Muhu. From there, a dyke leads to the Saarland, from which there is a beautiful view of the sea. Why is it worth visiting the largest of the Estonian islands at all?

First of all, to taste in its unique atmosphere. The island was shaped by its turbulent past and the fact that it changed hands at some point. In the 20th century, it came under the rule of the Red Army, which decided to create a militarized zone out of it. As a result, mere mortals could not come there. Currently, it is very popular. First of all, because of the wonderful nature. Here you can see craters after impacts of meteorites (Kaali Crater). The island is also famous for its picturesque windmills and sea lighthouses . It is also worth visiting the only town on the island, i.e. Kuressaare with a seafront castle and traditional wooden buildings.

For whom?

The island of Saaremaa will be the perfect travel destination if you are looking for picturesque places where you will be able to stay in the great outdoors. It is also a good proposition when you want to relax . On the island you will find numerous chalets for rent which, in addition to a garden, also offer a sauna and other amenities.
