Tour of Kihnu Island
Kihnu Island is the seventh largest island in Estonia. The cultural heritage of Kihnu – its clothes, dialect, music and handicraft – belong in the UNESCO list of intangible cultural heritage. Kihnu Museum represents this in the most genuine way.
Kihnu is an ideal place for walking, fishing, cycling, and meeting the friendly islanders! The best way to explore Kihnu is to rent a bicycle on the island or bring one along from the mainland. There are many bicycle rentals on the island, and most of the tourist accommodations also rent bicycles.
The Kihnu Island tour starts at the harbour and takes you to the most important sights of the Kihnu island!
