A rocky spit divides Ruhnu coast into Higher-Ruhnu on the east and Lower-Ruhnu on the west \u2013 this is especially evident at Kuunsi. On the east side of Kuunsi there is a narrow (10 m) beach covered in a dense cobble stone and boulder paving. From the land side, it is surrounded by an up to two meter high terrace eroded into old coastal sediment that is continually shaped by the sea during storms. On the west side of the top of the cape there is a low sandy beach that is often swallowed up by waves.
