Kipi: Coastal Landscapes, Nature Experiences and Family Destinations
Accommodation in Kipi
The topics of interest have different specific points of reference: the indented coastline of Pilguse-Koovi Bay with its coastal lagoons, the Estonian cuisine of the Kipi-Koovi country restaurant, nature observation in the vicinity of the Kipi-Koovi Hiking Center, nocturnal wild boar observation from an observation platform, and the animal experience for children at Kapa Talu Miniloomaaed in Kipi. Those looking for a hotel in Kipi can therefore tailor their stay to their preferred experiences: the coast, nature, regional cuisine or time with children. The season provides a separate framework for nature observation. The landscape includes coastal lagoons and small islands; orchids and mushrooms, on the other hand, are associated with different seasons.
The entire coastline of Pilguse-Koovi Bay is indented and includes coastal lagoons.
Key facts about Kipi
Kipi-Koovi can organize what is known as a photohunt on request. Alongside exploring independently, this offers another way to get to know the surroundings with a particular focus on photographic subjects. The photohunt and the nocturnal wild boar observation have different focuses: the former activity centers on photographic subjects, while the latter focuses on the behavior of feeding wild boars.
Another unusual observation opportunity is available at night: feeding wild boars can be observed from an observation platform. This is a clearly defined activity and does not come with a general guarantee of seeing animals on every visit. The activity is therefore clearly described in terms of both time and location.
Where do regional cuisine and agriculture play a role?
The Kipi-Koovi country restaurant offers Estonian dishes to overnight guests and hungry passers-by. Eggs, vegetables, potatoes, berries, fruit and herbs come from its own organic farm.

FAQ
When is it possible to walk to the small islands?
You can walk to the small islands in Pilguse-Koovi Bay when there is seasonal low water. Access on foot is therefore dependent on a seasonal water-level condition.
Which nature observations differ between summer and autumn?
Several rare orchid species bloom in summer in the vicinity of the Kipi-Koovi Hiking Center. In autumn, many mushrooms grow there, including rare species. The two observations therefore take place in different seasons.
