Pakri Cliff, Limestone cliff in Lääne-Harju Rural Municipality, Estonia

The Pakri Cliff rises 24 meters above the Baltic Sea, forming a natural limestone wall that extends along the northwestern Estonian coastline.

The cliff marks the location where Peter the Great ordered the construction of a lighthouse in 1724 to improve maritime navigation in the Baltic region.

The surrounding area reflects Estonian maritime traditions through its lighthouse, geological formations, and connections to local seafaring communities.

Visitors require sturdy footwear to explore the cliff paths, and maintaining a safe distance from edges ensures protection from potential limestone erosion.

Natural processes have shaped multiple layers of visible limestone strata within the cliff face, revealing millions of years of geological history.
