5. Curonian or Baltic Spit: not towns, but good locations to spend time in! They are different! If you like ‘civilized rest’ in a hotel or small B&B, with good food to eat, special signed routes to take – then go to the Curonian Spit – You will like its beauty! If you prefer ‘wild rest’, with only two small grocery stores, ruined German things to see and be close to nature with almost the same beauty as on the Curonian Spit – choose the Baltic Spit for your one-day destination and you won’t regret!
