Kojonsaari, Lake island in Kurkijoki Rural Settlement, Russia.
Kojonsaari features three distinct beaches, including two sandy ones and one pebble beach, surrounded by pine forests and smooth boulders.
The island changed its name from Vatikkansaari to Kojonsaari in the 1940s, marking a period of territorial changes in the region.
Local residents gather on the northern beach during summer festivals to celebrate traditional Karelian customs with music and regional dishes.
A pedestrian bridge connects the mainland to the island, allowing visitors and cyclists to access while restricting motor vehicles.
The island contains multiple landscapes within its 3.5 square kilometers, from reed-covered bays to marshlands and granite formations.
