Virtsu
Virtsu, a small borough on mainland Estonia's western coast, serves as the
primary port for journeys to and from Saaremaa Island. The Virtsu ferry whisks you away to Kuivastu on Muhu Island, which is connected to Saaremaa by the Väinatamm, Estonia's largest causeway.
Virtsu itself holds historical significance. Explore the remnants of a
15th-century fortress, a coastal defense battery, and the ruins of Virtsu manor house. A historic lighthouse stands
sentinel, guarding the coast. Gearheads will delight in the Kirsi Vintage Vehicle Museum, showcasing unique horse-drawn
carriages, bicycles, and automobiles.
While Virtsu primarily caters to cargo movement, venturing into Pärnu unlocks a world of shopping
options. Pärnu offers a vibrant market brimming with fresh produce, alongside
numerous grocery stores and shopping centers.
Similar to Roomassaare, Virtsu's nightlife is limited. However, events like
the Virtsu
Vibe x Secret DJ SET x Sunset add a touch of liveliness. For
a more vibrant scene, Pärnu beckons with its diverse nightlife options.
