Vahase is a 65.52 ha (161.9 acres)[1] Estonian islet in the Gulf of Riga. It's located about 200 m (660 ft) west of the island of Abruka. Administratively Vahase belongs to the Abruka village in Kaarma Parish, Saare County.
Vahase arose from the sea about thousand years ago. The island has a tiny forest with junipers, oaks, and pines.
Because of shallow water Vahase is accessible from Abruka by foot. There's only one farmstead on the island.
Writer Albert Uustulnd has described Vahase in his novel Tuulte tallermaa.

Pachut krve micha se v ustech
Zas dalsi krestan chcip
Tisice mrtvych povstaly z hrobu
Aby tady znicili kriz
Dusim se virou v mrtveho Phoehea
Dlouhymi hreby probodam dlan
Mesias cirkve co uctiva Boha
Zaplati za vsechny ukrutnou dan
Najdi svuj svet, kde Satan nam vladne
Na prsou nos hrde nas znak
Stojime v kruhu a kricime 'ave'
Zabij ty krysy, vypal jim zrak
Tak proc chces zit
Vzdyt jsi jen krestan
Proc jsi sem prisel
Ty nevis, co bude dal
Tak pro svou viru
Pohrbij svuj ideal
Pachut krve micha se v ustech
Zas dalsi krestan chcip
Tisice mrtvych povstaly z hrobu
Aby tady znicili kriz
Dusim se virou v mrtveho Phoehea
Dlouhymi hreby probodam dlan
Mesias cirkve co uctiva Boha
Zaplati za vsechny ukrutnou dan
Proc jsi sem prisel
Ty nevis, co bude dal
Tak pro svou viru
