The spit is a massive sandbank that is about a 5 minute ferry from Kalpedia. Its similar to Spurn point but about 2 miles wide and runs all the way to the Russian controlled Karlingrad Territory.
when we got there it was fooking hot. I made the mistake of suggesting that we should go to Nida, right at the bottom of the Lithuanian part of the Spit. Its a nice place etc. but the problem was that the coacg took about 70 minutes to get there. Most of the journey the bus driver overfilled the coach so we had sweaty people stood in the isles as well as sweaty people sat down.
Nida itself offered great views of the Cornian sand dumes and some very cute and tiny beaches.
I walked out into the sea. It took about 15 minutes to even get the sea up to my waist. Kind of like pool harbour if anybody knows that particular Monty Python sketch.
Small note. i had a toffee flavoured ice cream called a Totally Brown. Good times.
