Šurp brauca ārstēties kopš 19. gs. sākuma. 1838. gadā Ķemeros nodibināja kūrortu. Ķemeru kūrortā ārstēja ādas un kaulu slimības, kā arī gremošanas un nervu sistēmas slimības. 1877.g. izbūvēja dzelzceļa līniju Rīga - Tukums, bet 20.gs. sākumā tika ieviesta tiešā dzelzceļa satiksme ar Maskavu. Kūrorts bija ļoti populārs un katru gadu arvien vairāk viesu brauca šurp ārstēties. Īsi pirms I Pasaules kara atklāja elektriskā tramvaja satiksmi starp Ķemeriem un jūru - Jaunķemeriem. Ķemeri atrodas starp purviem un ezeriem, 6 km attālumā no Rīgas jūras līča.

Ģipka is a village that once was the site of the first maritime school in Kurzeme.  It was opened in 1869, just a few years after a similar school in Ainaži.  This was a Category 2 maritime school, which trained helmsmen for long-distance trips and captains for short-distance trips.  The school was moved to Mazirbe in 1894.  Before the maritime school, the building housed a different kind of school, and a second floor was added in 1867 specifically for the maritime school.  Today this is a residential building.  During 28 years, the school trained more than 200 professional sailors, and it was of great importance in facilitating ship building in shoreline Liv villages.
