Getting There & Around

How to Get to Kumbli

Short boat trips and private charters depart from Pirita Harbor and Viimsi in summer; the crossing is brief (often under 30 minutes), but operators run trips only in suitable weather.

Tips for Visiting Kumbli

  • Kumbli is very small - bring only what can be carried on a short boat trip; there are no facilities on the islet.
  • Check local boat schedules from Viimsi or Tallinn's Pirita harbor; private boat hire is common during summer.
  • Visit at low wind for calmer waters and easier landing on the rocky shoreline.
