ZELENOGRADSK
Zelenogradsk is a Russian coastal resort town in Kaliningrad Region, about 20 miles north of Kaliningrad. The public transportation between those places is very well developed. Zelenogradsk is a popular destination for Kaliningraders' weekend trips. In former times Zelenogradsk belonged to East Prussia, its name was Cranz.
The beaches in Zelenogradsk are very good: long, wide, with clean white sand. There are also so-called "frying pans", i.e. parts of the beach hidden from the wind by small dunes. There one can enjoy the sun already in April or late in October.
The Curonian Spit is only four kilometers away from Zelenogradsk.
