Great beaches! Amazing scenery with miles of secluded coastline, totally unspoiled. Although the roads are not the best....but we did explore.

I visited the spit as part of an organised tour on a coach, and really enjoyed it. Not because we saw something 'amazing' or 'special' but because we were outside in a beautiful natural habitat, surrounded by fresh air, pine trees and sandy beaches. It is a great place to wander around and just take in some scenery, and breathe... More

It's quite a drive, but you get out of town to see see, basically, a nature park with sand dunes, nice woods/nature/birds etc. Interesting history of the building and the myths of the Spit.

An uninspiring 40 mins drive from kaliningrad town with abandoned fields and grass being illegally burnt on the way.. The spit is a stretch of land linking kaliningrad with lithuania (border half way along). Seemingly protected by unesco- not that you would notice- and with a fee to enter. Really not much to see- it consists of a long road... More

The sand dunes, some 200' high, towering over the beach. From the viewpoints it seems like the Sahara stretching away except for the pine forests beyond. Just as impressive on the Baltic Sea side. You may see wild boar and elk.

you go for 60 kms and you hope soon to be in place where you will remain breatheless. sorry but this did not happen to me. nice long forest like the ones you find everywhere in the north. does not deserve a deviation for a visit.
