Palanga

Palanga has become synonymous with summertime debauchery among Lithuanians all throughout the nation, and its high-season electro and chart parties blaze on the Jonas Basanavicius avenue and among the innumerable clubs and al fresco drink places that line its borders from June to August.

During the hot summer months, the beach is another draw, with possibly Lithuania's most accessible and sunbather-friendly length of golden Baltic sand. Palanga isn't only about late evenings and quiet days.

There's also the charming neo-Renaissance appeal of the Tiskeviciai Palace to view, as well as the intriguing Amber Museum and the Curonian Spit's environmental reserves!

Palanga transforms into Lithuania's party capital throughout the summer. Some nightclubs in Kaunas and Vilnius close for the summer and relocate to Palanga. That's where the celebration takes place! Palanga is sometimes compared to Lithuania's Miami.

If you don't like crowds or parties, you may stay in Klaipeda or one of the Curonion Spit's fisherman settlements.
