Gdańsk, Sopot and Gdynia are one whole for me. If I'm going to
the seaside, I try to visit all three cities because each has its own
unique atmosphere.
Gdynia is very quiet, but it has many attractions and you can
get everywhere quickly. My favorite place there is the beach.
Even in the season, there is not a huge crowd there and you
can soak up the sea while sitting or walking around. We have
a sidewalk or a sandy and rocky shore at our disposal.
As you know, I managed to be there this year and thanks to a
tip from one of you, I managed to find a new walking route.
Yes, I confirm, it is possible to get from Gdynia to Sopot by walk
ing along the seashore. The distance is about 10 km, but the
sand slows you down a lot, so it is an incredibly long trip full of
surprises. There are moments when you can only go into the
outflow ;) When walking barefoot, you have to be careful about
the pebbles, of which there are a lot there. This has advantage
s because there are amber spots. I even managed to find a
few small ones. There are parts where you are reminded of
Croatia because there are only pebbles. As you approach
Sopot, the view is breathtaking. Huge cliffs that you can touch
and admire from below. Near the city there is a beautiful forest
park leading to the pier. This time I also managed to go to the
Forest Opera and attend a rehearsal before the evening
concert. I absorbed classical music with all my being
surrounded by greenery. "Lato" fit this atmosphere perfectly.
Therefore, another goal has been entered into the concert
calendar. I love Sopot especially in the off-season, so I often go
there in winter. Then you can enjoy a walk on the pier or
under it when the tide is low ;)
For me, Gdańsk is primarily about architecture. You know that
I love Gothic, and you can fully enjoy it there. There are my
favorite gems beautifully integrated into modern buildings,
which, however, retain the medieval style. This is something
I miss very much in Wawa.
If you are planning a holiday, I recommend accommodation in
Gdynia, walks in Sopot and sightseeing in Gdańsk.
The modern Solidarity museum is impressive. In the Artus
manor you can touch the exhibits, which is an amazing
experience for me. The Amber Museum enchants with the
beauty of intricate craftsmanship. New Year's Eve is a great
experience there. Especially with fireworks on the beach.
The sea in winter is magical.
