Merimetsa

Merimetsa is a residential subdistrict in Põhja-Tallinn featuring large wooded areas and direct access to Stroomi Beach. The area combines coastal landscapes with housing that blends into the forested surroundings.

The subdistrict developed as part of Tallinn's urban expansion following Estonia's independence in the early 1990s. This growth shaped the area into a residential zone within the existing forest landscape.

The name Merimetsa means Sea Forest and reflects how the area connects its residents to the natural surroundings. Today you can feel this relationship with nature while walking through the wooded areas and along the shoreline.

The subdistrict connects to central Tallinn through regular public transportation and has supermarkets and basic amenities nearby. Wear comfortable shoes if you plan to explore the forest paths and beaches on foot.

This area remained sparsely populated for many years, drawing mainly those seeking closeness to nature. Today it remains a place where forest and housing coexist side by side without clear separation.
