Irbenes radioteleskops / Ventspils Starptautiskais Radioastronomijas Centrs
The biggest of northern Europe and the world's eighth-largest radio telescope. Before reaching the telescope, one will pass by a former Soviet and now abandoned ghost town, which allows for some distinct pictures.
Ovišu bāka
The oldest navigation building (1814) in Latvia with a 37 m high tower and a lighthouse history exposition at the seashore.
Pūrciema Baltā kāpa
Dune at the bank of the River Pilsupe, 20 m high, nature trail, wooden footbridges, viewing platforms, resting places, parking lot. It is not really white though, more a yellowish. Also, do not expect a dune in a regular sense, more a high and steep hang of sand towards the river. The dune itself is covered by forest, so the rest looks pretty much like an ordinary hill. Not worth coming here just for the sight, only if you go by anyhow. It is a nice 1.5 km nature walk.
Stony seashore, nature trails, huge stone stacks, bird-watching platforms, resting places.
