You can easily spend a whole week in Parnu strolling the wonderful streets with their old wooden houses, resting in the many green parks, enjoying swims in the warm waters of the shallow Parnu Bay Beach and relaxing in one of the many spa hotels. The city offers many outdoor leisure options, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baltictravelcompany.com\/packages\/parnu-bay-golf-estonia\/\">golf<\/a>, cycling, water sports and a wide selection of historical <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baltictravelcompany.com\/packages\/palace-and-manor-tour\/\">manor houses<\/a> and luxury spa accommodations throughout the city. With the beach only a 15-minute walk from the city centre, you will find Parnu has that perfect balance of city and nature.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-2456\" src=\"https:\/\/www.baltictravelcompany.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_282120001500-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_282120001500\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.baltictravelcompany.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_282120001500-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.baltictravelcompany.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_282120001500-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.baltictravelcompany.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_282120001500-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.baltictravelcompany.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_282120001500.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2459\" src=\"https:\/\/www.baltictravelcompany.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_28351000750.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_28351000750\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.baltictravelcompany.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_28351000750.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.baltictravelcompany.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_28351000750-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.baltictravelcompany.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_28351000750-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-2460\" src=\"https:\/\/www.baltictravelcompany.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_28291000750.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_28291000750\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.baltictravelcompany.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_28291000750.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.baltictravelcompany.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_28291000750-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.baltictravelcompany.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_28291000750-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2461\" src=\"https:\/\/www.baltictravelcompany.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_28221000750.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_28221000750\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.baltictravelcompany.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_28221000750.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.baltictravelcompany.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_28221000750-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.baltictravelcompany.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_28221000750-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-2452\" src=\"https:\/\/www.baltictravelcompany.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_2853-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_2853\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.baltictravelcompany.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_2853-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.baltictravelcompany.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_2853-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.baltictravelcompany.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_2853-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Main Events in P\u00e4rnu City &amp;
