Jurmala City Department of Tourism

Why Choose Our Destination?

Jurmala is the city by the Gulf of Riga stretching along 33 km of coastline with modern relaxation and resort facilities. It has become the largest resort area in the Baltics as well as a popular location for international conferences and meetings. Jurmala is divided into 14 residential areas - Priedaine, Lielupe, Bulduri, Dzintari, Majori, Dubulti, Jaundubulti, Pumpuri, Melluži, Asari, Vaivari, Sloka, Jaunķemeri and Ķemeri. There is the peace and quiet of Priedaine, and there is Jomas Street, the street in Majori always on the go, with its many little restaurants and diverse entertainment. Bulduri and Dzintari are classic Nouveau and contemporary summer-house districts. From Vaivari to Jaundubulti there are single-family homes with small summer cottages and reminiscences of Jurmala’s once-famed strawberry fields. Farthest west lies Kemeri – administrative centre of Kemeri National Park, with mineral water and curative and mud sources unique in the world, and outstanding nature trails.
