The wonderful nature of Lahemaa National Park and fascinating military history intertwine at Hara Harbour. It was once a Soviet submarine base where demagnetization took place. Underwater technical facilities made the hulls of ships and submarines undetectable to magnetic mines. Today, it is a curious place to walk around and look at the ruins of buildings. Visitors can see a photo exhibition about the port's history, and nearby Hara Harbour offers guided tours, accommodation, and catering.
Fun fact: Estonia's most beautiful sailing ship, Tormilind (the Storm Bird), was also built in Hara Bay!
