It is on a peninsula however the land bridge is Russian, and, for some unknown reason, the border is closed, so we had to catch the ferry.
Some say they could build a bridge (the separation is only about 100 m at some points) but the government makes too much money from the ferry :-)
Its basically a beach resort area where rich people buy all the houses. However, it's UNESCO listing means that you can only tear down the horrible Russian built houses.
On the island there is the "Hill of Witches" with a lot of large wooden carvings of local folk laws.
Had a great day.
