During the summer months, as well as in May and September, the island can be reached by the high-speed boat "Vegtind," which departs from Patarei sadam (Patarei harbour), located next to Linnahall (the old Linda Line pier). Alternatively, the island is accessible year-round by Meretakso or Watersport boat (contact details can be found at the bottom of the page).
