Why go
A Hanseatic port with Baltic beaches and Solidarity's birthplace.
Gdansk's reconstructed merchant facades and its role in the fall of communism give it real weight. Sopot's beach and pier are a tram ride away.
Signature experiences
- Long Market and the Crane
- European Solidarity Centre
- Sopot beach and Malbork Castle
