Oosäär

Oosäär (also known as Oossaar, Oossäär, Kuradisäär) is a small islet in the Gulf of Riga, belonging to Estonia.[1]

Oosäär is approximately 4 kilometres (2 mi) long and approximately 5 to 10 meters (15 to 35 ft) at its widest, resembling a long, sinuous spit, but not connected to a larger landform. Vegetation is sparse and the island is made up largely of rocks and pebbles. Located a short distance off the coast of Varbla Parish, Oosäär is administered by Pärnu County.[2]
