Percent Map travel guild (2026-07-31): Coastal Bliss Without the Overheat

Imagine strolling through dense pine forests that seamlessly transition into endless sandy beaches, where the Baltic Sea's refreshing waves offer perfect dips. This idyllic setting is just an hour away from Riga by local train, making it easy to escape the city for a serene seaside getaway. Alternatively, enjoy cooler climes in Brittany’s lesser-known Côte Emeraude, known more for its charm than crowds. For July adventures, consider Saulkrasti’s inviting 15°C days and sandy shores in Latvia—an ideal spot to bask without the heat stress often found on Greek islands.
