    Pakri Parun Cafe

    Order a hot drink at Pakri Parun Cafe. It is open all day, so you can settle in early while the winter light is still bright enough to see the sea.

    Pakri lighthouse

    Walk to the Pakri lighthouse. It stands 4 km from the main town, so you will need transport. Check the route. Climb up to the 52 m height to watch the sun drop toward the SW.

    Pakri Parun Cafe

    Return to Pakri Parun Cafe for the afterglow. The warm interior is a perfect end to the chilly evening.

Local tip

The lighthouse is expensive (€5 for adults) compared to others in Estonia. If you just want the view, the surroundings are free, but the climb inside is the main attraction.

Check before you go

  • Lighthouse hours: May-Sep daily 10:00-20:00; Oct-Apr Sat Sun 12:00-18:00. Check if it is open on your specific date.
