Beyond the city: day trips from Riga

Riga is a good base for the rest of Latvia. The Baltic beach at Jūrmala is half an hour away by train, the castles and forests of Sigulda sit in the Gauja valley a little further out, and even Tallinn is doable in a day.

These guides cover the best day trips and the Jūrmala coast, so you see more than just the capital.
