Remarks Along the shore of the Baltic Sea is the so-called Livonian coast, which stretches from Kolka to Sīkrags and Ovīši. Fishing villages and other cultural objects established by the world’s smallest ethnic minority, the Livonians, can be found here. Oviši on iidne asula, mis sai oma nime skandinaavia sõna Liseort (Lyseort, Lusort) järgi.
