A stunning 98km long thin sand-dune spit that separates the Curonian Lagoon from the Baltic Sea.

Book a window seat on the left for morning flights to avoid glare and capture the best colors of the Baltic Sea. The approach into Khrabrovo is the highlight; keep your camera ready for the Curonian Spit about 10-15 minutes before landing. Clear weather is essential for seeing the Estonian coast, so check local forecasts for the Gulf of Finland.
