Salacgrīva Municipality ((ラトビア語:Salacgrīvas novads)) was created as a result of the territorial reform in 2009, which united several former parts of Limbaži region - Salacgriva town with its rural areas, Ainaži town with its rural territory and Liepupe parish. Salacgriva municipality is bordered by Aloja and Limbaži municipalities and Estonian Pärnu circuit. The centre of the municipality is Salacgriva . ==Nature== 4 species of shellfish can be found in the coastal municipality of Salacgrīva: soft-shell clam (''Mya arenaria''), Baltic clam (''Macoma Baltica''), lagoon cockle (''Cerastoderma glaucum''), and the bay mussel (''Mytilus trossulus''). Aforetime locals used shellfish as a feed for chicken, as such diet provided stronger egg shells. Salacgriva district is a part of the North Vidzeme Biosphere Reserve, and a nature reserve “Vidzemes akmeņainā jūrmala” (the rocky seashore of Vidzeme) lies within the area of the municipality. The size of this nature reserve is 3370 ha and it takes up 12 km of the sea cost of Vidzeme. Very rare and protected habitats, which are not present elsewhere in Latvian, are abundant in this area. The beaches are covered with stones and pebbles, meadows, foredunes or white dunes. Between beaches and forests an unusual habitat - Grey dunes – is hidden. Sandstone outcrops can be seen on the sea shore. Typical as well as rare and protected species and habitats can be found on the Stony beach. The boulders, which are located on the underwater part of the water level, serve as “brakes” during strong winds and storms, protecting the shore and forelands from erosion. The sandstone which can be seen in the outcrops of “Vidzemes akmeņainajā jūrmalā” (rocky seashore of Vidzeme) has formed over 350 million years ago. The largest outcrop on Vidzeme coast is the Veczemju cliffs. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Salacgrīva Municipality」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
