Kumlinge

Belisama in Kumlinge guest harbour, July 2018

The bay of Kumlinge is well protected from all winds. The small guest harbour can accomodate 25 boats, bow to the pontoon with stern buoy. Kumlinge means "Rocky passage" and indeed, there are lots of small inlet full of rocks that could have been a rocky passage in the past, when the land level was significantly lower.

The Saint Anna's church is located 3.6 km from the guest harbour. It is a typical archipelago medieval church with very well preserved wall and ceiling paintings.
