The "White Dune of Saulkrasti" is a special natural spectacle on the Baltic coast of Latvia, which shows the transition between pine forest and sea in an impressive way. The wide, almost deserted sandy beach invites you to take relaxing walks, while the striking dunes slope gently into the sea. The contrast between the calm, bluish waves of the Baltic Sea and the light sand tones of the dune, which blend harmoniously into the coastal landscape, is particularly fascinating.
A little away from the tourist hustle and bustle, you can feel the serenity of nature here - and that makes this place particularly authentic. Saulkrasti, which translates as "sunny coast", lives up to its name, especially when the sky is clear and the sun makes the sand shine in warm tones. The dune landscape is not only a place of peace, but also a small adventure for those who follow the paths through the pine forest to the coast.
A visit is particularly worthwhile in the late afternoon, when the low sun bathes the landscape in a magical light.
