Ventes Ragas is the most distant western point of Silute district. There is a lighthouse that is operating for more than 100 years (since 1863). In 1929 professor Tadas Ivanauskas established a station of bird ringing in Ventes ragas. There is a museum in Ventes ragas ornithological station.

As this is probably the only restaurant in Ventes ragas, obviously it is the best one:) In fact Ventaine is providing a complex of services - accomodation (incl. hotel,camping) and restaurant. Located in the very good place with the nice view to Kursiu marios and Curonian spit.

Favorite Dish: Fish soup

Favorite thing: The western coast of Lithuania is rich in bird life and storks, the national bird of Lithuania, are seen in abundance in the summer months from April till September. Tucked away in the south-west corner and situated on the banks of the lagoon is one of the biggest bird ringing stations in Europe. Ventes Ragas lies directly on the north south migration route and every spring and autumn around a million birds pass over the site. This visit is a must for any ornithologist as there are a number of rare species in the area.
