Spectacle of nature. Beautiful destination for a break from city tours. Regenerating beach, you can breathe clean air, the scent of the sea and algae, sometimes intense but still good. The colors are intense, you get lost admiring the view. Take bus 108 from Tallinn, and in 40 minutes you are immersed in this wonderful spectacle
