About the «White Dune» project
The «Belaya Dyuna» all-season resort is a key project of the federal initiative «Five Seas and Lake Baikal,» which is being implemented under the national project «Tourism and Hospitality Industry.»
Project Scope and Goals
— Area: 479 hectares in the Zelenogradsky District of the Kaliningrad Region (in the area of Povorovka village), on the coast of the Baltic Sea. The coastline extends over 5 kilometers and is up to 400 meters wide. — Room Inventory: Approximately 10,500 hotel rooms. — Guest Capacity: The planned resort area is expected to host about 1.4 million people annually, with 300–400 thousand of them during the off-season and winter. The average occupancy rate is projected at 70% per year: up to 90% in the summer and no less than 45% in the winter. — Jobs: Once fully operational, approximately 17,800 jobs will be created.
Architectural concept presented by GBU «GlavAPU»
- The concept involves developing a resort city composed of four self-sufficient districts clustered around a prominent central area. 2. A two-story transportation interchange with an underground level and park-and-ride facilities will be located in the city center—this will allow resort guests to be instantly at the heart of the resort upon arrival.
- Within the street network, one of the pedestrian streets functions as a diagonal element, shaping and complicating the city’s structure.
- Hotel infrastructure will be situated along the first, second, and third lines of the coastline.
- The coastal section of the city includes dedicated recreation areas and a windbreak forest belt, which will help mitigate the impact of sea winds and create an even more comfortable resort microclimate.
