Best time to visit Estonia
Best time of year to visit Estonia
The warm period of year from May to September is the best time to visit Estonia. During May and June, white nights give a perfect reason to stay up late and party in Tallinn. Summer is a wonderful occasion to see wildflowers in forests and beautiful Estonian bogs. It is also prime time for outdoor celebrations, such as Jaanipäev folk holiday and Laulupidu, a massive song and dance festival. To get closer to nature, pick wild berries, watch seals and flying squirrels, go canoeing and kayaking or relax in a floating sauna. Snow and freeze duvet covers Estonian lands from November to February. Winter is the time to go cross-country skiing, seeing frozen waterfalls, and getting lost in Christmas Market in Tallinn.
