Pušalotas Beach: a quiet maintained pond beach with sand, changing cabins, and fire sites in the Pušalotas area

Pušalotas Beach is a small maintained recreation site beside a pond in the Pušalotas eldership of Pasvalys District. A sandy shore is framed by mature trees and the more open landscape of Aukštaitija, with changing cabins, benches, and fire sites on the grounds. The beach lies beside road 2904 in the direction of the Oreliai area, but its identity remains the official Pušalotas name and the exact coordinates. It suits a short swim and a simple break, with visitors responsible for checking the day's water and weather conditions themselves.

The beach sits in the Pušalotas eldership's rural landscape

Pušalotas Beach is reached beside road 2904 in the Pušalotas eldership of Pasvalys District. The exact site coordinates are 55.9363191, 24.2423166. Navigation may also show the Oreliai locality name, but that is the surrounding place label, not a second beach.

At the end of the drive, choose the recreation site beside the pond rather than only the centre of Pušalotas town. The sandy shore, tree line, and open fields help identify the stop, although final road conditions and parking options may vary by season.

The Pušalotas area gives the place a local scale

The centre of the Pušalotas eldership is Pušalotas town, about 23 kilometres from Pasvalys. The eldership covers more than 14,000 hectares and includes 39 villages, so the beach belongs to a broad rural landscape rather than a resort complex.

The municipal description notes that the eldership's surroundings are known for mature pine woods. At the pond, that setting meets lawn, sand, and several large trees, turning a short swimming break into a small walk through the northern Lithuanian countryside.

A small shore arranged for a short break

This is not a large urban bathing site. Its main feature is a sandy strip beside the pond, with several benches and simple outdoor infrastructure. Changing cabins are provided, and fire sites allow a longer stop when visitors follow fire-safety and local rules.

The place is best for a small family or group that wants time beside the water without a complicated programme. Check the condition of facilities, bins, and the approach surface when you arrive, because outdoor equipment is affected by weather and seasonal maintenance.

Act as if no lifeguard service were present

The official sources checked do not publish a Pušalotas Beach water-testing calendar, lifeguard schedule, or daily public guarantee of bathing conditions. Before entering the water, check signs, weather, wind strength, and the water surface.

Do not swim far from shore, jump in unknown places, or leave children by the water without an adult. Pond depth and bottom conditions are not uniform along the shore, so a footbridge or attractive water surface is not automatically a safe swimming point.

Combine the stop with Pušalotas town

After time beside the pond, continue to Pušalotas: the eldership describes the town as its local centre, with a history reaching back to the early seventeenth century. The nearby Church of Saints Peter and Paul and the town streets give a short outing a cultural continuation.

The checked sources do not list a separate beach ticket or fixed opening hours. Arrive in daylight, use only lawful access, light fires only in designated places, and take rubbish away so that the small recreation site remains tidy.
