Neringa seeks solutions: tourists’ trip to the Maritime Museum and vice versa has become a luxury

A famous representative of the entertainment world in Lithuania, who later deleted his comment on social media, wrote with his family from Juodkrante to the Maritime Museum. Upon his return, he had to pay a fee of € 30 again.

Last year, a large line of cars stretched along the road to the Maritime Museum. At the end of the season, the municipality of Neringa decided to cancel the benefit, when there is no need to pay the ecological tax by going to the Maritime Museum and returning the check. It is true that this message did not reach everyone.

“Just a few clouds in the sun, and last year all of Nida moved to the museum. Because wildebeest Free entry is required. It was cruel at Smiltyne at the time, “said one woman when the discussion on how to solve this problem started on social media.

“Why? Driving a car pollutes all the time, only doubles the charges for those who travel multiple times a week for tourism purposes. There is no additional charge for bus tickets,” said another person.

An urgent solution is needed

Nina Puteikienė, representative of the Maritime Museum. 15 minutes He declared that the municipality of Neringa must seek solutions as soon as possible, because the season is gaining momentum.

“Now they are considering such a solution: to agree with the carrier, the buses would go to the museum, to the dolphinarium. Asked if we would leave room for passengers to disembark. If it is well organized, of course, we will make it possible. In the south, in Turkey, in Egypt, it is transported in such a way, maybe it is good. It must be organized now as the season progresses. The solutions must be fast, efficient, clear and convenient for tourists, well communicated.

I think people count money even though they are on vacation in expensive Nida. It was after San Juan’s misunderstandings that not everyone got the news that the privilege was revoked. There were complaints from both us and the municipality of Neringa that we had to pay a second time. As long as there is no carrier, we recommend that tourists plan to come to us on the day of departure or the day of arrival, ”advised N. Puteikienė.

According to her, the museum, which opened after the quarantine, is already full. It is true that the number of visitors here is now four times less than last year.

“We hope that the season begins, we see many tourists near the Baltic.” We have prepared many new attraction points. I invite you to the exhibition “Crustaceans, echinoderms and their superpowers”.

The exhibition invites you to wrestle with lobster. The exhibition is new: “From Venus to the propeller”. It is a journey through the labyrinth of the sink, informative, conceptual, experiential. Thanks to the weather, people are very happy with the performances of California dolphins and lions in the open Gulf of the Sun. The Dubingiai fishing boat, which is located on the pier, will also be open to visit on Friday.

You intend to organize bus trips

Mayor of Neringa Darius Jasaitis 15 minutes Such efforts are being made to organize excursions to the Maritime Museum by bus. It is difficult to say how quickly it will be successful, given the vicissitudes of public procurement.

“We are trying to organize buses to the Maritime Museum so that we don’t have to travel and we will be disappointed when we arrive, because last year we faced extremely big problems.” People who arrived at the Maritime Museum no longer received tickets and did not even drive to the Maritime Museum, a highway full of cars. On the way back to Neringa, they demanded that they be admitted free of charge, and the ATMs could only pass to those who presented us with a check and the Maritime Museum. We saw from the beginning, four years ago, that there would be a big problem. I can safely say that the dissatisfied were more than satisfied, not to mention conflicts and disputes.

We made the decision to ride the buses without being encouraged to come and go. We are looking for carriers. Companies would adapt to demand. And the demand occurs when it is cloudy. When the sun shines, nobody goes to the Maritime Museum. And when the weather is worse, everyone from Palanga, Kretinga, Klaipeda drives that day. There would probably be an opportunity to check together and maybe there is nothing to travel because, for example, there are no more tickets. Tourists would save his health, because he is very angry to turn around with the children, I understand, “said the mayor.
