Cape Kolka

Highlight • Beach

Here, next to a stone gate, the new lighthouse can be seen in the distance. Also interesting are the two currents which, as in every cape, meet here and show a correspondingly wild wave pattern.

We had a very good meal here, the service was friendly and if you want to eat somewhere sheltered from the wind, you can sit in a pavilion.
