Estonia has over 2000 islands. The West Estonian Archipelago is a part of UNESCO Man & Biosphere reserve. All islands of the Archipelago are located in the Gulf of Finland and actually there is a lot of water of all kinds in Estonia. However, there is one thing Estonia is missing – wild waves of the open sea.
The Baltic sea coast in Latvia stretches for almost 500 km. West Latvia – Kurzeme (Curland) fascinates with untamed Baltic sea and pristine nature practically untouched by civilization. And although you are on the sea shore you feel the breath of the ocean. However, Latvia does not have any island in the Baltic sea.
To get the best of two worlds and to make your trip complete we decided to combine “the best of the west” from Estonia and Latvia - a paradise island and wild waves of untamed Baltic sea. We are sure you will enjoy it!
