Majori is the heart of Jūrmala — a place where the sea, the scent of pine, and the bustling Jomas street converge on a summer day. If you're wondering what to do in Majori before or after breakfast, this guide will help you plan your day so that Café Bitīte becomes your starting or ending point.
Start your day with breakfast at Bitīte
A good day in Majori begins with a hearty breakfast. Café Bitīte is located at Jomas iela 63, right in the heart of the town, and we are open every day from 8:30 AM — ideal for starting your day without rushing.
Our breakfast menu is extensive: omelets, pancakes, oatmeal with berry sauce, chia pudding, cottage cheese, and a berry smoothie bowl. We also offer breakfast boxes for takeout and family breakfasts for 2 or 4 people. See the full selection in our breakfast collection or read about the best breakfasts in Jūrmala.
Morning coffee for energy
Before heading out for a stroll, be sure to enjoy our barista-made coffee. In summer, our iced coffee is particularly refreshing and easy to take with you to the beach. If you're traveling with children, our spacious children's corner will come in handy — while the little ones play, adults can leisurely enjoy their coffee and plan their day.
Light breakfast or a hearty meal
A day in Majori can be long and active, so it's good to start it with the right meal. If you plan to walk a lot, choose something hearty — an omelet or a family breakfast. If you want something lighter before the beach, chia pudding, cottage cheese, or healthy summer breakfast options are perfect. There are also breakfast boxes to take with you if you're rushing straight to the sea.
A stroll by the sea
From the center of Majori to the beach is just a few minutes' walk. In summer, a morning stroll by the sea is a true delight — soft sandy path, the sound of waves, and fresh, salty air. Tips for your stroll:
- Head to the beach early in the morning while it's still quiet
- Walk along the coastline to the dune trails
- Bring a cool summer drink from Bitīte
- Don't forget a hat and water — the summer sun by the sea is strong
The proximity of the sea is one of the main reasons people fall in love with Majori. The smell of salty air, the rhythm of the waves, and the wide sandy strip create a feeling that time stands still. Even a short walk along the shore can refresh your mind and set the tone for the day.
Jomas Street and its shops
Jomas Street is Majori's main promenade — a pedestrian zone with cafes, shops, souvenir stalls, and summer bustle. It's pleasant to wander here after breakfast: admire local artisans' works, buy a souvenir, or simply enjoy the summer atmosphere.
Café Bitīte is right in the midst of this hustle and bustle, so it's easy to return for coffee or dessert after your walk. If you're looking for more recommendations on where to eat, read about where to eat in Majori.
A stroll along Jomas Street is also a great opportunity to enjoy the summer atmosphere of Jūrmala without a specific plan. Here you can stop by street musicians, browse artisan stalls, or simply enjoy coffee at a table and people-watch. In summer, the street is alive until late in the evening.
Dzintari and the concert hall
A little further along the coast lies Dzintari with its famous Dzintari Concert Hall and a forest park with an observation tower. During the summer season, concerts are held here, and a walk through the pine forest is a pleasant way to spend an afternoon.
Dzintari Forest Park is particularly beloved by families — there are trails, playgrounds, and an observation tower offering a wide view over the pine treetops and the sea. If the day is warm, the shade of the forest provides a pleasant coolness, and a walk here is easy and enjoyable for all ages.
If you plan to attend a concert, our recommendations for a cafe near Dzintari Concert Hall will be useful — Bitīte is a convenient stop before or after the event.
The path from the center of Majori to Dzintari is itself a pleasant walk — along the promenade, through the pine shade and fresh sea air. It can be done unhurriedly, stopping at viewpoints and enjoying the summer feeling. Many choose this as a peaceful afternoon activity that requires no special planning.
End your day at Bitīte
After a long day in the sea breeze, you want to sit down somewhere peacefully. Café Bitīte is open until 9:00 PM, so you can end your day here with coffee, a slice of cheesecake, or a cool drink. In summer, our rooftop terrace with views over Majori at sunset is particularly cozy.
