Saaremaa
Saaremaa is the biggest island of Estonia and the 4th in the Baltic Sea – with area of 2,922.19 km2 and coastline of almost 1300 km. There are 33,307 inhabitants (2017) which puts Saaremaa on the 9th place in the Baltic Sea. Together with the small surrounding islands Saaremaa is part of Saaremaa municipality and Saare county. The people of Saaremaa are hardworking, active and welcoming, and at the same time just a bit conservative – all of that gives Saaremaa its own feeling.
Living
The life on Saaremaa follows its own rhythm. From the island you can find at the same time swamps, sea, forests and more sun than anywhere else in Estonia. Old and new are side by side on Saaremaa. There are thousands of kilometers of stone fences scattered across the island that speak of the hard working islanders. Summers are full of life and activities, autumn and winter offer peace and quiet for more time for family, friends and hobbies. There are all sorts of cultural events happening all year round and it is difficult to find an empty weekend with nothing to do.
