The objective of the paper is to document and examine the major upwelling event that occurred along the northern coast of Estonia in August 2006. With a horizontal extension of 360 km, the event was caused by persistent easterlies and was noticed by a large number of holidaymakers, as it turned the temperature of the coastal sea to a chilly 5-10°C for about a month. In situ measurements from an RDCP current profiler revealed an along-wind coastal jet of up to 60 cm s-1 and a weak near-bottom countercurrent. The depths of the pycnocline and nutricline rose. The maximum drop in water temperature was 16°C, that of salinity was 3.6 PSU. Analysis of satellite images confirmed the large extension and the prominence of the event.
