Its southern portion lies within Kaliningrad Region, Russia and its northern within southwestern Lithuania.

The Curonian Spit is home to the highest moving (drifting) sand dunes in Europe. Their average height is 35 meters, but some attain a height of 60 meters.

PALANGA

One of the most popular resorts in Lithuania, Palanga has been listed in the "Hot List” by the British Sunday Times.

The list completed by Sunday Times Travel reveals Europe’s 20 best beaches for sun and sea for the summer of 2010.

Palanga is portrayed as “a cracking little resort town with a white, sandy beach, pine forests, sand dunes and fizzing night-life” – a perfect description of Lithuania’s most popular holiday destination. The Sunday Times article also mentions the relative low prices in the country. “A terrific amber museum” which houses one of the largest amber pieces in Europe “Sun Stone”, and the Botanical Gardens are highlighted as the most popular cultural activities in the resort.
