Smiltynė (German: Sandkrug) is a part of Klaipėda city municipality in Lithuania.
Ferries transport vehicles and people daily between the two cities across the strait, as there is no connecting bridge.
Until the beginning of the 20th century, the village was just an inn with a handful of fishermen's houses, but later turned into a popular resort among wealthy residents of Klaipėda.
Smiltynė became part of the Klaipėda municipality in 1897, and soon afterwards it became legal to sell land to individuals.
The village also has a nature museum, which educates visitors about the geology, changing landscape, and unique fauna and flora of the spit.
