The municipality

Haapsalu linn is a large municipality measuring 21 by 24 kilometres, spread over 5 separate pieces. With 13.379 inhabitants it is of medium density (49 per square kilometre). It has a coastline, and that matters: the strip of maritime-terrestrial public domain is governed by its own rule, different from that of the rest of the municipality. Within its boundaries there are 4 protected areas, including Väinamere. There, the rules on permitted uses are set by each area's own plan. It borders 3 municipalities, and the answer may change on crossing any of those lines.

All the layers that apply

Why — the layers that apply here

protected zone
4 areas: Väinamere · Väinamere · Ehmja-Turvalepa · Matsalu
Protected-area designation: the rule of the protected area applies here in addition to the municipal one, and it usually makes the penalty harsher.
On the beach the answer is no even if the municipality is permissive: the prohibition is national and needs no sign.
Neighbouring municipalities
Signage on site and the local authority prevail. This reproduces the written rule as of the date indicated: it is neither legal advice nor an authorisation.
