Kiaulės Nugara on the left

Kiaulės Nugara is an island in Curonian Lagoon, Port of Klaipėda, Lithuania. The name of island means the back of a pig in Lithuanian language.

One of the biggest islands of Lithuania. Length around 800 meters, width around 200-300 meters. Island used for electric power transmission station between Klaipėda and Curonian Spit. Sailing between island and ferry terminal is not allowed, because of electric cables hanging at only 9 meters height.[1]

At the end of 2014 Klaipėda LNG FSRU is planned to start working on the island.[2]
