Its exquisite white sand beaches are an absolute top highlight of Neringa. The emerald hues of the Baltic sea invite visitors for a truly revitalising time by the waves. Every Neringa settlement has a well looked after beach at the western side with all the sand and sea fun at your convenience - swim, socialise, sunbathe, exercise or find your own unique way to experience Neringa’s extraordinary seaside.
Nida’s and Juodkrantė’s beaches have been awarded the Blue Flag accreditation since 2002. This prestigious title is given to beaches worldwide that comply with a strict set of high standards: from cleanliness of the water and shore to the highest quality of the infrastructure, including lifeguard access, drinking water, impaired mobility access (Nida’s beach even offers a specialised sea bathing wheelchair for disabled visitors) and beach sports facilities.
All Neringa’s beaches and their facilities are always free of charge. Lifeguards offer first aid and patrol the beaches as necessary. There are nudist and dog beaches, busier and quieter beaches for as far as your eye can see - every beachgoer is bound to find a sandy spot to their own taste. After a busy (or relaxed!) time at the beach, grab a fresh bite at one of the outdoor cafes at each of the settlement’s beaches.
