Latvian Heritage
The owners of the Dieniņas homestead have preserved old traditions related to fishing and fish processing, and they have engaged in this work for three generations now. Fish are processed in line with ancient and local recipes, making use of technologies that are typical of the coastline. Visitors can buy local smoked fish. Tourist groups are invited to take part in an active leisure and cultural event, complete with dishes of fish that will fill their stomachs, a boot-tossing event at the sea, stories by the wives of the fishermen, a theatrical performance, smoking of fish, and tasting of fish.
