Kaali crater
The village is the site of the Kaali crater, actually a series of craters formed by meteorite impacts more than 4,000 years ago.[3] The main crater has become well-known and is now a popular tourist destination. Supporting a museum, cafeteria, shop, and hotel,[4] the crater has led to tourism becoming an important part of Kaali's economy.
Facilities
The village is served by a community school. Other local facilities are mostly associated with the tourist destination at the crater, including a cafeteria and hotel.
Before the administrative reform in 2017, the village was in Pihtla Parish.[5]
