Sand
The sand element in the Curonian Spit is a spectacular natural phenomenon, where wind and water combine in a harmony that creates an ever-changing landscape. The dunes, especially the Dead Dunes, are constantly shaped and moved by strong winds, creating a dynamic and lively picture of nature. These mountains of yellow sand have become home to many species of plants and animals that have adapted to the harsh conditions. The sandstorms that carry the sand and create extraordinary sights add a special spice to this landscape. The Curonian Spit offers not only the beauty of nature, but also interesting activities such as windsurfing and canoeing, which allow you to immerse yourself even more in this wonderful element. It is always alive and inviting you to discover its mysteries and beauty.
