Estonia

Ever wanted to eat blood sausages washed down with a syrupy liquor of unknown origin, check out abandoned Soviet military installations, or go bog walking then get flogged with birch branches in a scorching hot sauna? You can do it all in Estonia, the small territory which packs in some charming quirks without ruining your budget.

Estonia Weather

The moderating influence of the Baltic Sea does battle with the frosty Russian winds, making for uncertain but nonetheless freezing temperatures in winter (November to March) and just a few hours of semidaylight every 24 hours. From May to September average days are in the pleasant range of 15-20°C (59-68°F), though nights can still be rather chilly. Though snowy in winter, there is regular, mild to moderate rainfall throughout the year, becoming slightly heavier towards spring.
