Kuumentuville
Kuumentuville, also known as Kuumentuville Island, is a small, uninhabited island located in the Gulf of Finland, off the coast of Estonia. The island is part of the larger Kuumentuville Nature Reserve, which was established in 1994 to protect the island's unique ecosystem and wildlife. Kuumentuville is characterized by its diverse flora and fauna, including a variety of bird species, such as the common gull, the black-headed gull, and the great black-backed gull. The island is also home to several plant species, including the common sea lavender and the sea aster. The island's most notable feature is its large colony of common seals, which can be seen basking on the rocks during the summer months. Kuumentuville is a popular destination for birdwatchers and nature enthusiasts, who can access the island by boat from nearby towns such as Paldiski and Keila. The island is also a popular spot for fishing and swimming, although visitors are advised to be cautious of the strong currents and rough seas. Despite its popularity, Kuumentuville remains a relatively untouched and pristine natural area, making it an important conservation site for Estonia.
