Amazing art-noveau castle in the end of Seedri tn, great restaurant. The place for fine dining. Concerts in the garden during the summer. Built by a rich businessman for his daughters wedding in the beginning of the 1900´s.

Parks & Nature
"The white beach", another good beach but not as crowded and well-organized as the one in town. Camping as well as an amazing adventure park with climbing trails in the trees. Quite advanced, haven´t dared myself yet but my son that is quite agile made it. The restaurant and hotel Andropov Villa from the Soviet era is nearby. In the area is also a golf course.
