BEACHES!
The nicest ones are obviously the slightly more remote ones, but they are also not that far, at most a 20 min cab / drive from city centre. Don’t take public transport, it will be slow
The more central ones are also decent, safe and clean. And on weekdays pretty empty.
OUTSIDE OF TALLINN:
SOOMAA NATIONAL PARK a vast wetland known for its unique "fifth season" flooding (in early spring when the snow melts), pristine bogs, meandering rivers, and rich biodiversity, making it a haven for wildlife and nature enthusiasts.
