As reported by fakt.pl, Poles are well-oriented with prices on their coast. However, it is often a real mystery how much tourists pay, for example, for ice cream or accommodation in neighboring countries. So, popular Polish TikTokers, publishing their posts on this social network and calling themselves “Warto_zobaczyć” (“Worth seeing”), walked around our most popular resort.

“Lithuania is not just Vilnius and the Nemunas River – the Baltic Sea also awaits tourists. The most famous resort here is Palanga, which attracted aristocrats and artists at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries (writer Władysław Reymont, painter Leon Wyczółkowskis, and others visited here).
The resort area was even called “Baltic Zakopane”. But let’s go back to 2026 and check what the price list looks like on the Lithuanian coast,” the portal writes.
The aforementioned TikTokers shared these prices: apartments for two per night – 471 zlotys (about 110 euros).
Beer – 6 euros (26 zlotys), roasted corn – 4 euros (17 zlotys), the same for Italian ice cream. Kebabs – 7-10 euros (30-43 zlotys). And so on.
Their posts are full of praise for Palanga and comparisons with Polish seaside resorts. Allegedly, both there and here you will find kitsch on the main streets, but in Lithuania, there are plenty of elegant restaurants and cafes nearby.
The seaside also seems similar, just without those tents popular in Poland.
Poles also liked the bicycle paths, and especially Birutė Park with the Amber Museum in the Tiškevičiai Palace.
Comments poured in under the posts. Some agreed that Palanga is great, while others did not hide their surprise at the prices. Allegedly, resorts in Southern Europe are cheaper, not to mention Poland itself.
“Prices out of a hat”. Prices – a real drama,” they wrote.
And one comment particularly stood out for its wit.
“Almost like ours, only everything in euros,” wrote the commentator.
We remind you that the current exchange rate is such that one euro costs approximately 4.3 zlotys, so from such a comment, it seems that everything in Lithuania is simply four times more expensive than in neighboring countries.
