Looking at the website, I thought it might be a good idea to add some
accommodation hints. A quick idea would be to just link to some
overpass API query which shows the possible accommodation options on a
map, like one of these:

http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/d9

http://www.openstreetbrowser.org/?zoom=13&lat=58.36975&lon=26.71520&basemap=osb&categories=services%5Bservices_tourism%5D&layers=&overlays=

It's a bit embarrassing that there are only rather few places mapped
in OSM so far... So my suggestion is to add some more hotels, guest
houses etc. to the map, and tag them with additional information, such
as contact website, phone etc. I will also contribute those that I
know and see if I can find some more.

Another thing to be mapped would be public transport lines, and in
particular bus lines. As you can see here, some of them are already
mapped:

http://www.openptmap.org/?zoom=13&lat=58.37139&lon=26.71655&layers=B0000TFFT

I haven't mapped any bus lines yet, but I will try... And I can
certainly contribute some bus stops.

It would also be good to add accessibility tags such as
wheelchair=yes/no/limited, if known, to aid people with disabilities.
