There is a place in Lithuania that our children absolutely love. It is Dreverna Harbor, or, as our children call it, “Turkey in Lithuania.” And we cannot disagree with them, because it really has everything you need for a perfect family holiday. Most importantly, it has the only outdoor pools with water slides for children in Lithuania. But that is just a small part of what you can find here. Enjoy indoor pools and a spa, tennis and padel courts, and a children’s club. Kids can join supervised activities and entertainment; there are also playgrounds and much more. You can stay in cosy accommodation cabins and enjoy an incredible restaurant with concerts by some of Lithuania’s best performers. You can also take boat trips on the Curonian Lagoon and join exciting educational activities. If you have always thought that an unforgettable holiday atmosphere can only be experienced in Turkey or abroad, believe us, Dreverna Harbor may pleasantly surprise you.
The only heated outdoor pools with water slides for kids in Lithuania
The biggest summer attraction at Dreverna Harbor is the only heated outdoor pools with water slides for kids in Lithuania. As soon as you enter the pool area, you understand why this place is so often called “Turkey in Lithuania.”
Families will find a large heated pool for adults, a separate children’s pool, water slides for little ones, comfortable sun loungers, and everything you need for a relaxing summer day. While the children enjoy the water attractions, parents can relax by the pool.
For our kids, this place has already become one of their favourite destinations in Lithuania. Every time we arrive, they run straight to the slides and do not want to leave the pool until evening. Another great advantage is that the fun does not stop when the weather changes. Dreverna Harbor also has a modern indoor spa and pool area with an indoor pool, saunas, and water slides for children, making it a great destination not only in summer. And most importantly, it is an ideal place because, unfortunately, the weather in Lithuania can be unpredictable. So even if the weather changes, your holiday does not have to end – you can simply continue enjoying the indoor pools.
There is also a café in the pool area, so you do not have to worry about anything – everything is right there.
Cosy family cabins and relaxation by the Curonian Lagoon
Dreverna Harbor is not just a place for day trips and entertainment. It is also a great place to spend a weekend or even a longer holiday.
Families can choose cosy wooden cabins with terraces and barbecues. Some cabins have terraces overlooking the pools, while others offer views of the Curonian Lagoon, so everyone can choose their favourite setting. For those travelling by campervan or with tents, there is also a spacious campsite with all the necessary facilities. We really like the fact that once you stay here, there is no need to drive anywhere else – all the entertainment and activities are within walking distance.
Kids’ Harbor, animators and entertainment from morning until evening
One of Dreverna Harbor’s biggest strengths is its focus on children.
The Kids Harbor entertains with animators, creative activities, games and various educational activities. During the summer season, daily programmes are organised, so there is simply no time for children to get bored.
This is also a great advantage for parents. While the children spend time with the animators, adults can relax by the pool or enjoy some downtime in the spa area.
Children’s birthday parties are also organised here. And there are playgrounds throughout the area, so little ones have plenty to do all day long.
Restaurant, concerts and evenings you won’t want to end
Dreverna Port has a wonderful restaurant as well as several cafés. The menu is excellent, and the food is delicious. One of the biggest advantages for us is the huge children’s play area in the restaurant, where kids can spend hours playing.
Concerts and various events also take place here. We attended a concert by the Lithuanian group “Žemaitukai” and they pleasantly surprised us.
First, we had dinner at the restaurant while the children happily played in the playroom. Later, we enjoyed the concert, and when it ended, there was no need to rush home – we simply returned to our cabin and relaxed. The next morning, we started the day with a swim in the pools.
It is precisely these little details that create a true holiday feeling.
Boat trips on the Curonian Lagoon, educational activities, and even more entertainment
When staying at Dreverna Harbor, it is worth setting aside some time to explore the activities in the surrounding area.
From here, you can take boat trips on the Curonian Lagoon, take part in various educational activities, or climb the Dreverna Observation Tower. It offers some of the most beautiful views of the Curonian Lagoon.
It is therefore no surprise that many families come here for more than just one day. There are enough activities to fill an entire weekend, and you will often want to stay even longer.
If you are looking for a place where you can find heated outdoor pools with water slides for children, cosy accommodation, animators, a restaurant, concerts, a spa and plenty of activities for the whole family all in one place, Dreverna Harbor is one of the best destinations in Lithuania.
It is no wonder that this place has already become a true holiday paradise for many families – a place they want to return to again and again.
