Monthly weather and packing notes
September in Jūrmala calls for adjustable layers and a hooded rain shell. Keep Majori beach pauses and Dzintari pine walks comfortable. A Ķemeri bog outing needs separate transport and careful footing; swimming and spa items depend on your actual plans.

What to leave behind
- Untested slippery footwear: rain makes boardwalks slick, and snow is not cleared from the Great Ķemeri Bog Boardwalk.
- Only heavy clothes: removable layers work better between coastal wind and indoor stops.
- Bulky sightseeing luggage: forest paths, sand and tower stairs suit a small day bag.
