Põgari-Sassi viewpoint

On the coast of Põgari-Sassi, you can see a well-maintained beach meadow. Since the beach meadow runs right next to the road, can see many bird species up close. The coast here is a particularly favourable area for various waders. From early spring to mid-summer, you can also spot a strange-looking pied avocet here.

Thousands of barnacle geese go to Põgari-Sassi beach meadow in spring and autumn to feed. In autumn in September, Põgari-Sassi is one of the best places to observe the nocturnal flight of cranes.

The best observation point is on the large square next to the old cattle barn. It is forbidden to go to the beach meadow.
