Why Sopot matters

Sopot is the Polish seaside resort, a small town of sand, spa villas and cafés that sits between Gdańsk and Gdynia. Its wooden pier stretches far out into the Baltic, and locals walk it at every time of year. In summer the beach is full of sunbathers, in winter people come for brisk sea air and quiet cafés. It is a ten-minute train ride from Gdańsk, which makes it an easy half-day trip from the city.

Talking points

  • The wooden pier is a landmark walk, easy to reach from the station.
  • The commuter train links Sopot to Gdańsk in a few minutes.
