Keemu rest stop

The rest stop near Keemu Harbour is an ideal place to stop for a lunch break. You can enjoy a picnic under a covered shelter or in the open air in the outdoor seating area.

Keemu rest stop sits on the shore of Matsalu Bay, near the little Keemu harbour, in one of the best birdwatching areas of Matsalu National Park. The shelter is a thatched, three-walled hut with a long table, where swallows nest under the eaves. While the bay is free of ice you can watch swans, grey herons, ducks, diving ducks and gulls on the water, and now and then a white-tailed eagle circles overhead. Wide coastal meadows surround the site. Nearby are the harbour pier reaching into the bay, the Keemu observation tower and the village society's Midsummer bonfire field with a village swing.
