The names refer to the same sandy beach: Elbiku liivarand is known as Roosta rand. At one kilometre long and an average of 50 metres wide, its size is easy to gauge. The length and average width describe different dimensions of the beach and together provide a brief guide if the beach is the main focus of your trip.

For practical planning, a beach profile from 2020 lists a car park with 80 spaces and boardwalks suitable for wheelchair users. Check the current situation with these facilities before your visit. This allows you to take the information about parking spaces and paths into account without treating it as a statement about other areas of the beach.

At Roosta beach, a surf club offers equipment and the support of an instructor. The activities include kitesurfing and windsurfing. If you want to include one of these sports in your travel plans, you’ll find a specific offering here that lists both equipment and an instructor.

The Roosta coastal walk starts at Roosta Puhkeküla, which is right by the sea. The walk initially follows the beach; along the way, visitors learn about shells, erratic boulders and coastal plants. On the return leg, the route leads into a pine forest. There, medicinal plants growing in sandy soil are examined and their everyday uses explained. This gives the walk a different focus from water sports: it combines coastal and forest themes with learning.

Roosta also has a disc golf course with nine baskets, suitable for beginners and more experienced players. So, alongside the themed content of the coastal walk, visitors can choose a game with explicitly stated experience levels or a surfing offer with an instructor. You can decide which option to prioritise based on your travel interests.

Scheduled buses run on the Haapsalu–Linnamäe and Linnamäe–Elbiku routes, and onwards to Dirhami. Check the timetable for your travel date before setting off. These routes provide a concrete starting point for planning your journey; checking the timetable helps you fit the bus connection into your travel plans.

When looking for accommodation, you can first decide what matters most to you: the sandy beach, water sports at Roosta beach or the themed coastal walk. This puts the specific beach and activity options alongside travel arrangements as separate considerations for your decision.
