Sommers (Russian: Соммерс; Finnish: Someri; Swedish: Sommarö) is an islet and a lighthouse in the eastern part of the Gulf of Finland, an arm of the Baltic Sea, just outside the Gulf of Vyborg, about 19 kilometres south of Virolahti, Finland, but it is now possessed by Russia.[1] The lighthouse is situated on a rocky skerry, which is elevated a maximum of 16 metres above the Baltic Sea.
