Quick take

  • Best for: a low-effort contrast day (more horizon, less walking density).
  • Keep it simple: one long walk + one warm drink + back to Riga.
  • Finish the day with a light evening plan in the city.

A simple Jūrmala day plan

Don’t over-schedule the coast. The value is in space and air. Walk, stop, snack, walk — then return before you’re exhausted.
