Pärnu
Estonia, Estonia
Pärnu is Estonia's fourth-largest city and beloved "Summer Capital," located on the southwest coast at the mouth of the Pärnu River where it meets Pärnu Bay in the Gulf of Riga.
Founded in 1251 as a Hanseatic League member and later controlled by Teutonic Knights, Poles, Swedes, and Russians, it now thrives as a beach resort with a 44,000 population, renowned for its wide sandy beach, promenade, and 19th-century spa tradition featuring mud baths and saunas.
Visitors enjoy art nouveau villas, parks like Rannapark, cultural sites such as the Red Tower and Tallinn Gate, vibrant food scene, and events, blending historic charm with modern relaxation. Its pedestrian-friendly center and light industries like food processing make it a year-round coastal gem 128 km south of Tallinn.
