Pärnu, in Russian and Latvian Piarnu, is an Estonian city located in the southwest of the country, on the shores of the Gulf of Riga.
It is the fourth most inhabited city in Estonia with about 47,000 inhabitants, and is recognized as the main holiday destination in the country for its sea beach with white sand and the Pärnu River that crosses the historic center.
Parnu is the largest tourist center in Estonia and one of the main Baltic resorts for European tourists, along with Jūrmala in Latvia and Palanga in Lithuania.
It is next to Jūrmala in Latvia and Palanga in Lithuania, one of the busiest seaside resorts in the Baltic countries.
You won't find street vendors here, or offers of services, or people listening to music around you.
The waters of the Baltic Sea have one of their highest temperatures in this part of the Gulf of Riga, making it totally pleasant for swimming on the hottest days.
Of course, you will have to go deep enough to find depth, because the terrain is surprisingly flat.
Few people use umbrellas, palapas or parasols, the sun is a rare commodity and highly valued in these geographies. Also, skin tanning is the favorite unofficial sport of Estonians.
The city has a humid continental climate. Temperatures are relatively milder than inland Estonia, with relatively cold winters averaging −3.5°C and mild summers averaging 22°C and highs above 30°C.
Since the local climate is milder than in other parts of the country, nationally it is considered the capital of summer. Most foreign visitors are Finns, Russians, Latvians and Swedes.
The main attraction of Pärnu are the spas. The bathhouse dates from 1838. During the Soviet Union it functioned as a public sanatorium, but today it is a private hotel offering therapeutic treatments.
Today's tourism industry has developed since the 1990s. Previously, the port of Pärnu was closed to foreigners and was only used for fishing, although the beaches were open to the public.
With independence, the spas were privatized and funds were invested to restore the historic center, as well as to develop the coast and its promenade. Along the coast there are numerous spa centers.
The beautiful sunsets of Pärnu extend in summer until almost midnight, which prolongs the beach days for long hours.
Due to its extensive horizon without buildings, enjoying the sunset in Pärnu is a feast for the eyes.
