Virtsu marinas
Virtsu is a port settlement on Suur väin, where the busy ferry link to Muhu meets traces of an older coastal community.
Virtsu
Virtsu stands on the mainland side of the strait opposite Muhu. Ferry traffic shapes its modern rhythm, while a shore walk reveals older history. The settlement retains the ruins of a medieval castle once associated with control of the sea route.
Nearby Puhtu Peninsula offers woodland and coastal nature. A stop in Virtsu can include both a look around the settlement and a separate nature walk.
