Stegna II seaside bathing area is located at access point No. 67, reached from Morska Street, and extends 200 m along the coast towards Sztutowo. Its designated area measures 200 m × 50 m.

What can you discover on the cycling routes in Stegna?
The 14.82 km cycling route section from Mikoszewo via Stegna to the border between the municipalities of Stegna and Sztutowo, near the Stutthof Museum, has a clearly defined length and course: it passes through Stegna and ends at the municipal border near the museum. If you are looking for a cycling route with a stated distance, you can specifically consider this section.
The Mikoszewo–Piaski cycling route also passes through Stegna, with woodland along the route. There is also an information board in Stegna along the cycling route about an oxbow lake with Salvinia. So, in addition to a specific route distance, the cycling theme includes a nature note relating to a particular body of water and the Salvinia mentioned there.
Which cultural themes shape the town?
The Bursztynowa Komnata Museum displays amber specimens and inclusions from the private collection of its owner, Wojciech Głodzik. This gives visitors to Stegna a cultural attraction focused on amber and a specific collection. Those interested in this material will find a different cultural focus here than in the church’s architecture or music.
The Church of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus was built between 1681 and 1683 using a half-timbered, or post-and-beam, construction method typical of Pomerania. Its pneumatic organ dates from 1914 and has 32 stops. Every summer, it hosts concerts as part of the International Organ Festival. The history of the architecture, a precisely dated instrument and recurring summer concerts give culture enthusiasts different reasons to include Stegna in their travel plans.
