Hiiumaa

Hiiumaa landscape

The perfect place for anyone seeking rural peace, Estonia’s second-largest island Hiuumaa is also one of its most sparsely populated. While its natural beauty is on a par with that of neighbouring island Saaremaa, it has experienced far less tourist development. Hiiumaa’s thin, sandy soil has never supported much in the way of agriculture, so most of the island remains covered by virgin pine forest, peat bogs and shrubby heathland, habitats favoured by elk, boar and deer.

The picturesque coastline is dotted with isolated lighthouses, deserted beaches and inviting nature trails, perfect for leisurely exploration.

Main settlement is the sleepy fishing village of Kärdla, north of which the Tahkuna peninsula offers the island’s finest sandy beach at Tõrvanina Bay, popular with windsurfers and wild campers in summer.
