Erratic boulder
Kaarna- e. Pruudikivi; Armumiskivi
The Raven Stone on the Vainupea shore is a cracked, pyramid-shaped boulder over five metres high; from the south it looks like an animal's head with open jaws, from the west like a bird's beak, and a small cave under its southern point gives shelter from rain. The story goes that it drifted over from Finland one foggy night, and in the morning a raven was sitting on top. Village girls later climbed it in the evenings to watch for their sweethearts returning from sea, and wedding guests climbed it too, which is why it is also called the Bride Stone.

Vainupea rannas asuv Kaarnakivi on lõhenenud, püramiidja kujuga üle viie meetri kõrgune rahn: lõunast meenutab ta avatud lõugadega looma pead, läänest linnunokka ning lõunatipu all on vihmavarjuks väike koobas. Rahvajutu järgi tuli kivi ühel udusel ööl Soomest ja hommikul istus selle otsas kaaren. Hiljem ronisid rannapiigad õhtuti kivile oma merelt saabuvaid peigmehi ootama, pulmade ajal ronisid sinna ka pulmalised – sellest ka nimi Pruudikivi.
