Breathtaking Curonian life in a day

This place is the best. We strongly recommend Curonian Spit to ourselves and we do recommend it for You. It is a unique narrow piece of land squeezed between the Baltic sea and the Curonian lagoon. Once it was surrounded by fisherman villages that now became picturesque resorts. Expect fine sand dunes, pine forests, plenty of water and horizons. Expect wilderness accustomed to tourism with a touch of local smoky culinary tradition.

HIGHLIGHTS:
- Visit Curonian Spit - one of 4 UNESCO sites in Lithuania
- Smoked fish from local fishermen
- A walk around Sand Dunes
- A visit to beautiful towns of Juodkrante and Nida

Since we know the time is not your partner, there will be plenty of the road, which is beautiful once we cross a ferry to the spit (3h drive from Vilnius). There is only one road and we picked out the most picturesque and must see agenda that can fit in a day.

In Juodkrante we will stop for a “Hill of witches” that describes ancient folk traditions and say “Hi” to cormorants who have settled a colony in the forest. Afterwards a sight worth a little hike uphill for 360 degrees panoramic views.

In the middle of sightseeing, it’s time for the other senses and we will stop at a local fisherman who will have some fish that was smoked that day a few hours ago – life rarely gets better than this. It is a tradition of every local visitor to eat Curonian smoked fish and get it at the fisherman is an experience in itself.

We will continue to the most western town of Lithuania – Nida – which is the best place on earth for many Lithuanians. Here we will stop for a breathtaking panorama from the Parnidis dune and have a stroll by the lagoon.

The purpose of this trip will be to show You the best Lithuania has to offer. Believe it, or not – many foreigners come back for longer to this Curonian life.
