Zeebos (couple trip)
How Couple-Friendly is Zeebos?

Aleksejs Kurako
Nice place for evening walk.
Anna Daenekindt Langrova
Nice place to take a walk, play with kids, eat blackberries and do a little birdwatching. Not that there would be any fancy spieces, but they are easily to spot even with the kids.
