Liisi (island)

Liisi is a small, uninhabited islet located in the Gulf of Finland, belonging to Estonia. It is part of the Vaindloo archipelago, situated north of the larger island of Vaindloo. Liisi is characterized by its rocky coastline and sparse vegetation, consisting primarily of hardy grasses and low shrubs adapted to the harsh maritime environment. The islet serves as an important resting and nesting site for various seabird species. Due to its remote location and lack of permanent inhabitants, Liisi is relatively undisturbed and maintains a degree of natural wilderness. Access to the island is typically restricted to scientific researchers and ornithologists studying the local bird populations.
