Context piece
- Saaremaa in Estonia is a familiar Baltic destination for Lithuanians, but it differs from the busier resorts they may know.
- The island is defined by its calm, nature and silence, with little crowding even in its main city.
Saaremaa may be familiar to Lithuanians, but the Estonian island offers a very different resort experience. Located in the Baltic Sea, it is marked less by crowds and bustle than by calm, nature and silence.
Even the islandโs main city remains quiet. Visitors may have to search for a restaurant along its main street, a detail that captures how far Saaremaa is from the busy atmosphere associated with many Lithuanian resorts.
