Weather

Two separate wet seasons shape the year here, roughly around July and December, with drier, more reliable stretches in between rather than one long wet or dry season. In August, expect highs around 25°C with rain on roughly 11 days of the month.

Things to Do

Riga's Art Nouveau architecture and old town pair well with the Baltic coast's beaches at Jurmala.

Local Cuisine

Try grey peas with bacon and rye bread, Latvian staples.
