SEE Verta pamatyti

The wide, pebbly, desert-like landscape of the grey dune surprises anyone who sees it for the first time. In the fields of pebbles, which are several kilometers long and several hundred meters wide, you can see the Sand Pink (Dianthus arenarius), while the lichen form a yellow, green, grey and black lacy ornament that cannot be found anywhere else in Latvia, the pebble deserts found in the surroundings of Užava are the only site where the eleven lichen species grow.

The piers were built in 1905 according to the project of port engineer M. Šistovskis. The promenade is ideal for taking walks and watching the setting sun, the might of the stormy sea, and huge ships calling at the port.

In the city, you can see 24 natural-size cows made out of fiberglass and 3 big cows: the Sailor Cow, the Flower Cow and the Travelling Cow. They are 4 m high and 7 m wide.

You will find an extensive sea fishing boat collection and the largest anchor collection in the Baltics with more than 140 exhibits dating from the 17th century to present day. At the Seaside Park, you can enjoy the Anchor trail which is formed from the biggest anchors, there is also a little narrow gauge train running in the territory of the museum.

A special and romantic spot with quiet cobblestone streets, attractive 19th century wooden buildings and ever present geraniums on the window sills.

At the Seaside Park, the biggest anchors found in the Seaside Open-Air Museum were used to create the Anchor Trail. You will find the largest anchor next to the Park’s entrance; it weighs 23 tons and towers 6 m in height.

The access path to the platform is a rendition of the infinity symbol designed for Latvia's centennial.
