Top Nature in Tallinn

Don’t miss the Swan Pond and the Japanese Garden; they’re super picturesque. I think they make for the best photo ops!

I recommend bringing your own snacks and drinks. The beach bars can be pretty pricey! I packed a picnic and saved a bunch of money while enjoying the views

I think it’s best to check the tide schedule before you go. When the tide is in, the beach area shrinks a lot, which caught me off guard.

Wear comfy shoes. The zoo is larger than it appears, and there's a lot of walking involved. I regretted my choice of footwear halfway through.

Check out the feeding times for the big cats and elephants. It's a real highlight and you'll definitely want to see those moments up close.

Bring your own snacks and drinks! The zoo's cafe can be pricey and the food options are pretty limited. Plus, picnics in the open areas are nice!

Look out for the beach volleyball courts! It’s a fun way to meet people and join in on some games. I ended up playing with locals and had a blast!

Check the weather beforehand; the wind can pick up and make it pretty chilly even if it's sunny. I brought a light jacket after reading some reviews, and it saved my day!

Check the weather before you go! It can change fast, and I was caught in the rain. Maybe bring a light jacket or umbrella, just in case.

I recommend checking the public transport schedule beforehand. Buses can be infrequent, especially on weekends. I waited longer than I expected, and I could've used that time on the beach instead!
