Purekkari Cape is the northernmost place of mainland Estonia. The cape is 1.5 km long, covered with rocks and boulders and located on the Parispea Peninsula in Lahemaa National park. There's a small island at the end of the cape, which can be reached only when the water level is low. Thorny Japanese rose bushes catch the eye during blooming and when the roses bear fruit in the autumn; then you can also see many migratory birds. Old military establishments and the RMK camping site are near the cape. The road to the parking ground is narrow and not accessible with a big bus.

The tip of Juminda Peninsula, i.e. Cape Juminda, located on the northern coast between the Gulf of Kolga and the Gulf of Hara is an interesting one as the spit of the cape continues under the sea water as a chain of large stones that even move in case of larger waves. The water does not go deep very fast directly from the tip. It is possible to almost reach the sea by car. Today you can see a memorial in the tip of the cape that has been established in memory of the ships and people who perished in the Battle of Juminda in World War Two. Interesting to know:- The memorial consists of empty mines.
