Overview

Why visit Sõmeri Lighthouse

A coastal lighthouse near Matsi, reached on foot. Visit for the exterior and surrounding shore: the tower is not open to visitors.

Why stop here

The white octagonal tower stands among junipers and rocky shore. The walk offers a close view of the lighthouse exterior and a chance to explore this quieter stretch of the Matsi coast.

Plan your visit

Allow for an approximately one-kilometre foot approach from the road or parking area by the birdwatching tower. Wear shoes for uneven coastal ground and follow local access signs; the lighthouse cannot be reached by car.

Make it part of your day

Combine the lighthouse walk with a separate stop at Matsi Beach. Allow walking time at Sõmeri rather than treating the tower as a roadside viewpoint.
