"Island Charm in Saaremaa"

Saaremaa Tourism

Saaremaa is an Estonian island located in the Baltic Sea, and it is the largest island in Estonia. The stunning landscapes, endless beaches, and fascinating history make it an excellent destination for travelers.

Saaremaa is known for its natural beauty, particularly its beaches. The Juminda Peninsula is one of the most popular beaches in the area, and its white sand and crystal clear waters make it a great spot for swimming and sunbathing. Other beaches include the Koguva Beach, Kuressaare Beach, and Tahkuna Beach, all of which offer stunning views of the Baltic Sea. The island is also home to some of Estonia's most important historic sites. The Kuressaare Castle, built in the 14th century, is one of the best-preserved castles in the Baltic region and well worth a visit. Other notable attractions include the Kaali Meteorite Crater and the Angla Windmills, both of which are great places to explore. In addition to its beaches and historic sites, Saaremaa also offers a variety of outdoor activities, such as cycling, hiking, and kayaking. The area is also known for its delicious local cuisine, which includes dishes such as smoked fish, cheese, and sauerkraut. When travelling to Saaremaa, it's important to keep in mind that the island is quite rural and it's not as easy to get around as in other places. Although there are some public transportation options, it's best to rent a car or bicycle in order to get around more easily. Also, while the island is generally quite safe, it's always a good idea to take precautions and be aware of your surroundings.
