Loona Beach, a quiet stretch of pebble shore, offers a gentle introduction to Saaremaa's coastal charm. Unlike sandy expanses, this beach is composed of smooth, rounded stones, polished by the Baltic Sea, creating a unique texture underfoot. The sound of the waves here is a soft, rhythmic clatter, a natural lullaby that invites relaxation and contemplation.
