Discover Pedase: Beach and Nature

At Cape Pedase (Pedassoo), a sandy beach lies on the western shore. This coastal landmark gives your choice of location a specific connection to the beach. At the same time, Pedase can be explored through its protected habitats and different types of excursions. This lets you decide whether the beach, nature, a particular activity or the location of your accommodation should be the deciding factor for your trip. The beach therefore offers two distinct points of reference for planning your trip: as a feature of the coastal landscape and as the destination of the horseback tour that goes there and back from Vihterpalu.

Sandy beach at Cape Pedase

If you are looking for a sandy coast, the beach at the cape is a specific landmark: it lies on the western side of a named cape. The name Pedassoo refers to the same cape. The sandy beach and its position on the shore give you two features to use when choosing a location. This lets you connect your preference for a beach with a specific stretch of coast, rather than thinking of Pedase only in general terms as a seaside destination.

Protected habitats

Pedase’s natural environment has two specific points of reference. The protected permanent habitat Pedase merikotka püsielupaik is located in the village of Pedase. The Pedase nature area entirely encompasses the permanent habitat Pedase kassikaku püsielupaik. Their locations differ: one habitat is situated in the village, while the other lies entirely within the Pedase nature area. If you want to take protected areas into account when choosing your destination, these named habitats offer a distinct point of reference alongside the beach.

Excursions by activity

Pedase Hotel offers boat, canoe, hiking and cycling excursions. These options can be considered by activity type: boat and canoe trips alongside walking and cycling tours. If you like to plan your trip around a particular way of getting around, you can weigh up different options without treating all the excursions as the same experience.

Another specific option is a horseback ride from Vihterpalu to Pedase Beach and back. The starting point, destination and return route are specified for this tour. This distinguishes it from the range at Pedase Hotel, which is grouped by activity type: you can weigh up whether a specific trip to the beach or a choice between different kinds of activity matters more to you.

Accommodation and location

Pedase Hotel & Guesthouse is located in the village of Pedase, 250 metres from the sea. The beach at the cape and the accommodation’s location remain separate points of reference: the sandy beach lies on the cape’s western shore, while the 250 metres is measured in relation to the sea. This lets you weigh your interest in the beach separately from the location of a named accommodation.
