Long, wide stretches of white sand, numerous playgrounds, and a plethora of water sports make the Blue Flag Ventspils Beach a favorite spot for locals and visitors. Stretching for 1.2 km (0.7 mi) along the Baltic, the site has beach spots as wide as 80 m (260 ft) and features impressive sand dunes nearby, which can reach up to 9 m (30 ft) tall. The water's gradual slope makes the beach suitable for both beginners and expert swimmers. Rent a lounge chair or spread out your towel, go for a swim, or just have a picnic at this scenic spot. A visit to Ventspils Beach represents just the start of the adventure when you use our Ventspils trip tool to plot your vacation.

    Very wide beautiful beach with many attractions for kids
  • By Karīna Vintere
    A nice, clean beach. A great place to spend a hot summer day with friends and family. A walk along the coast, a morning run, beach volleyball, great view, refreshing seawater, all that and more. A very peaceful place, great for relaxing and meditation. It can get crowded during the hot summer days
  • By Nikolajs Fiļimonovs
    Tipical Baltic beach. Quite clean. Very good sand, quite soft and small. With some small rocks. The see can be quite rough.
