Pedase: Beach, Nature and Excursions

• Sandy beach on the western shore of Cape Pedase, also known as Pedassoo.
• Protected permanent habitat Pedase merikotka püsielupaik in the village of Pedase.
• The Pedase nature area entirely encompasses the permanent habitat Pedase kassikaku püsielupaik.
• Horseback ride from Vihterpalu to Pedase beach and back.
• Pedase Hotel offers boat, canoe, hiking and cycling excursions.
• Pedase Hotel & Guesthouse is in the village, 250 metres from the sea.

The sandy beach is on the western shore of Cape Pedase, also known as Pedassoo. The beach is therefore associated with a specific cape and a specific side of the shore. For trip planning, this gives you a clear point of reference for the coast: alongside the accommodation’s location in the village, there is a named beach on the western side of the cape.

A horseback ride goes from Vihterpalu to Pedase beach and back. The beach is therefore both a feature of the landscape and the destination of an excursion. These two aspects may be relevant to different interests: you can appreciate the beach as part of the coastal landscape or consider the horseback ride as a specific activity.

Two names are important for nature enthusiasts. The protected permanent habitat Pedase merikotka püsielupaik is in the village of Pedase. The Pedase nature area also entirely encompasses the permanent habitat Pedase kassikaku püsielupaik. These are two distinct habitats: one for the eagle and one for the eagle owl.

The descriptions of their locations also differ. The eagle habitat is described as being in the village; the relationship between the eagle owl habitat and the nature area is clearly stated: the habitat is entirely encompassed by it. This helps distinguish the two protected areas, rather than reading their names as referring to the same habitat.

Pedase Hotel offers boat, canoe, hiking and cycling excursions. There is also a horseback ride from Vihterpalu to Pedase beach and back. The activities can be distinguished by type: the hotel lists four kinds of excursions, while the horseback ride describes a specific route between Vihterpalu and the beach.

When planning your trip around your interests, you can first choose between activities on the water, on foot, by bicycle or on horseback. These descriptions refer to different kinds of excursions; they do not need to be understood as parts of a single tour. The beach is the destination of the horseback ride, while Pedase Hotel’s excursions cover several types of activity.

Pedase Hotel & Guesthouse is in the village of Pedase, 250 metres from the sea. This distance refers to the sea; the sandy beach, in turn, is located on the western shore of Cape Pedase. The two details provide different points of reference for planning your trip: a specific distance from the sea for the accommodation and a named stretch of coast for the beach.

The location and the activities on offer also answer different questions. The 250-metre distance describes how far Pedase Hotel & Guesthouse is from the sea; the boat, canoe, hiking and cycling excursions refer to what Pedase Hotel offers. When comparing accommodation, you can consider these aspects separately and decide how much importance to give to proximity to the sea, the types of excursions or the protected habitats.
