A forested village with a 13km stretch of magnificent Baltic beach, Narva-Jőesuu has been the area's primary holiday resort town since Tsarist times, when it attracted the wealthy St. Petersburg crowd. Now with a newly-revamped spa facility, it's gradually regaining its past glory. When you’re out here, be sure to drop by the colourful ‘Shishkin tree’, with its ribbon-filled branches. Newlyweds traditionally tie ribbons here in the belief that this gesture will guarantee eternal love.
