    Klaipeda, Lithaunia

    Klaipeda is situated at the edge of the Baltic Sea and Curonian Lagoon.

    It boasts picturesque half-timbered buildings similar to those found in Germany and Denmark and also has the remains of the Memelberg Castle, which was built in the 13th century, and the maritime museum in Fort Wilhelm, built at the end of the 19th century.

    • The Best of Neringa (Tour A)
    • Klaipeda, Lithaunia, Lithuania
    • Departing from the pier, we shall have a 20-minute drive to the ferry for our trip across the lagoon to the Curonian Spit, which is also known as Neringa. The legend says that the giant Neringa gathered an apron full of sand and poured it into the sea forming a long stretch of land, which divided the sea from the lagoon and thus made the fishermen safer.
