Vidzeme seaside

Vidzeme coast
Latvia, Riga
The Vidzeme seashore begins 25 km from Riga, from the Lilaste district, and stretches for about 100 km, to the town of Ainaži. The beaches of the Vidzeme coastline are characterized by fine, velvety sand, but here, between the villages of Tuja and Vitrupė, there is a 12-kilometer-long rocky area with sandstone outcrops, which is part of the Veczeme Rocks nature reserve. Also on the seashore, in the areas of Lilaste and Peterupe, there are several sections of picturesque sand dunes up to 20 meters high and up to 3 km long.
Lilaste Beach attracts with long shallow water and coastal pine forest, it is a popular place among surfers and kiters. On the well-maintained, but not crowded Saulkrasti beach, the depth begins almost at the coast. To the north of Salacgrīva, in the seaside meadows, which are an important nesting place for birds, there are trails and towers for observing birds. In addition to the beach, in Ainazi you can visit the museum of the nautical school - the first maritime school in Latvia.

25 km from Riga there is a very beautiful place - the beach in Lilaste, the picturesque Vidzeme seaside. A place with powerful energy, blown by the sea winds and storing in the wings of barley shells scattered along the shore, many interesting mysteries and finds. The beach is ideal for swimming, with soft sand and long shallow water, in which it is very pleasant to splash and wet your feet even in windy weather: the sand warms up perfectly under the warm sun. The beach is very good for walking and cycling.
