Preila
Preila is one of the newest settlements in the Curonian Spit. After their houses were buried under sand, the residents of Karvaiciai and Nagliai villages moved here in 1843. Preila became a resort in 1933. It has preserved its cozy vibes of a tranquil fishing village till now, so it's a perfect place for people who love nature and peace. A local fisherman, Heinz Kubilius, told about forms of entertainment that used to bring people here during the interwar period: Local fishermen loved football and even had their own league of the Curonian Spit. The final match usually took place in Preila, as it had the best stadium. People from the entire Spit used to gather to Preila on their Kurenkahns boots. After the final match, everybody used to party with the local music band - the only one in the entire Spit.
