Palanga today

Palanga is a health-promoting Lithuanian resort, where holidaymakers are attracted by the desire to get away from the everyday urban environment and draw strength from natural sources of health – sunlight, seawater and the clean and fresh air of the sea and pine forests.

Palanga’s greatest asset is its fine, soft sandy beaches with dunes and pine forests. Dipped in greenery and with a bridge over the sea that attracts holidaymakers every evening to watch the setting sun, the resort is a magnet not only for relaxation but also for healing. Palanga is loved by all – some come in summer when it’s fun, frolicsome and cheerful, while others like it when it’s peaceful and romantic – in autumn or winter. Palanga is full of concerts, sporting events and entertainment for children.

Since the inter-war period, Palanga has been known as a health and wellness resort. Its natural healing properties – iodine-rich air, fresh pine forest scent, mineral springs and salty sea water – have been recognised by many national and international medical authorities. Today you can also enjoy the many spas, sanatoriums and health centres in Palanga that offer a wide range of therapeutic and restorative procedures. One of the greatest pleasures of a summer holiday in Palanga is a dip in the Baltic waves or a sunbath on the soft, fine sand of the seaside. The Birutė Park beach, which has been awarded the Blue Flag every year since 2003, guarantees an exceptional holiday of the highest quality.
