The concepts of "Baltic" and "luxury vacation" have always been synonymous. Truly European comfort, perfect cleanliness, a special attitude towards young travelers and a huge number of options for entertainment - these are the main reasons to prefer a vacation in Latvia with children to any other tourist destination.
For or Against?
The arguments "for" spending a vacation or a vacation in Latvia do not end with comfort and purity:
- The climate of the Baltics is most suitable for families with children. The sun is not aggressive here, there are no too high temperatures even in the height of summer, and the healing air of the Riga seaside, infused with the aromas of pine groves, is able to cure some types of respiratory diseases and strengthen the immune system.
- Many popular beaches in Latvia regularly receive the Blue Flag Certificate. This prestigious award guarantees an ideal environment near the coastline and the purity of the sand itself.
- The entrance to the water on the Baltic Riviera is usually shallow, near the coast it is shallow enough, and therefore the water warms up better, and the child can be allowed to splash in the surf on his own.
Unlike the southern resorts, the water temperature in the Baltic is never high, and therefore the swimming season for recreation in Latvia with children here is limited to a few weeks.
Preparing properly
Traveler's health insurance and windbreaker for cool evenings on the Riga seaside should take their place in tourists' luggage. And for a relaxing vacation in Latvia with children, it is advisable to book a hotel or boarding house in advance, because there are many who want to visit the country of amber and gorgeous sunsets at the sea at the height of the season.
Passwords, appearances, addresses
For fans of water attractions at the entrance to Jurmala, the largest water park in the region, Livu Akvaparks, was built. Adults and schoolchildren will be able to have a great rest on its slides, and Captain Kid's Island is open for the smallest tourists.
The capital of Latvia does not lag behind the resort of Jurmala and is ready to offer many fascinating museum exhibitions, theatrical performances and outdoor entertainment. The Riga Zoo, the Capital's Museum of the Sun and performances by puppet theater and local circus performers are especially popular on vacation in Latvia with children. Sweet tooths will be delighted with a walk through the Laima confectionery factory, where the tasting of products begins from the very first minutes, and serious young men will appreciate a tour of the capital's airport.
