Jurata, Coastal settlement in Gmina Jastarnia, Poland

Jurata occupies a section of the Hel Peninsula, extending into the Baltic Sea with natural beaches flanked by pine forests and coastal vegetation.

The development of Jurata began in 1923 when the Lasmet company leased land from the State Forests to establish a resort destination.

The settlement maintains connections to Lithuanian mythology, as its name originates from Jurate, the Baltic sea goddess known in ancient tales.

The settlement contains numerous accommodations, including hotels and guesthouses, with direct access to beaches and water sports facilities throughout summer months.

During the 1930s, Jurata emerged as an exclusive destination where notable artists, including painter Wojciech Kossak, gathered for creative inspiration.
