Saaremaa

Saaremaa

Saaremaa, the largest island in the Estonian Achipelego, presents a welcome break from the buzz of mainland life. Dispite the flood of tourists that come here every summer, Saaremaa and Muhu, the sister island connected to Saaremaa by land bridge, are synonymous with peace and natural beauty. Estonia lies along the Baltic Sea, just below Finland.

Food

Traditional Estonian food has its roots firmly in the countryside, relying heavily on pork, potatoes and garden variety vegetables. The main culinary influences were from Germans, who ruled over Estonia for so many centuries. The Estonian restaurant scene is now amazingly diverse, especially in Tallinn. There are Indian, Tex-Mex, Thai and Georgian restaurants, as well as Hungarian, Japanese, Chinese and Greek ones.

Currency

The national currency of Estonia is called the Kroon. The Kroon is abbreviated as EEK. The smaller unit is called the Sent, 1 kroon = 100 sents. Foreign currencies can be easily exchanged in banks and exchange offices.
