Mrzezyno: Beach, Harbor, and Coastal Landscape

Mrzezyno lies at the mouth of the Rega River and has wide beaches with fine sand. The harbor’s waterside scene includes sailing yachts and fishing boats; excursion boats can also dock there. Other distinctive features of the town include the Church of St. Peter and Paul, Chata Rybaka, and several monuments.

Mrzezyno’s beaches are wide and covered with fine sand. Offshore sandbanks create safe, shallow swimming areas. If you want to spend most of your stay by the water, this beach landscape is one of the town’s defining features.

The landscape also includes dunes and pine forests. Mrzezyno’s beaches, dunes, and pine forests lie within the Natura 2000-protected Trzebiatów-Kołobrzeg coastal strip. To the west of the town, the “Nadmorski Bór Bażynowy” nature reserve is nearby. It is characterized by wind-shaped landforms and crowberry.

The town also has a promenade known as “promenadę brwinowską.” Together with the coastal landscape, this name describes another local feature, without implying a specific route.

The harbor brings together different maritime activities: it is used by sailing yachts and fishing boats, and excursion boats can dock there. Excursion boats from Mrzezyno also offer cod fishing trips. So if you are interested in fishing or spending time on the water, there is more to do here than simply enjoy the beach views.

Windsurfing and kitesurfing are among the water sports available on the beaches. Coastal cycling routes connect Mrzezyno with neighboring towns. Nearby, the Rega River is a tourist route for canoeing and stand-up paddleboarding. These activities offer different ways to explore the area: the beach and water sports, cycling, and river activities.

The Church of St. Peter and Paul was built between 1900 and 1912. Its presbytery features glass mosaics by Prof. Henryk Burzec. The stained-glass windows by Maria Powalisz-Bardońska of Poznań depict “sea flowers.” The church therefore offers a specific point of interest for travelers interested in religious art.

The monument to the “Wedding to the Sea” commemorates the first postwar Polish ceremony of that name. It took place in Mrzezyno on March 17, 1945. The Trzebiatów municipality holds annual commemorations at the monument, including a historical reenactment.

Another monument, “Tym, którzy nie powrócili z morza,” commemorates fishermen who lost their lives at sea while working. In addition to the main monument, smaller blocks display the numbers of fishing boats and the names of fishermen. Chata Rybaka is one of the oldest surviving buildings in the town. It was probably built toward the end of the 18th century and remodeled in the 1920s.

Mrzezyno’s smokehouses and fish fry shops serve freshly prepared fish dishes. At the landing stage, you can buy flounder and turbot directly from fishing boats. The restored Chata Rybaka also has a culinary connection: it houses a restaurant where guests can sample local specialties.

If you would like to explore destinations beyond Mrzezyno, the catalog also features Żukowo, Kielpino, Pustkowo, Trzęsacz, Darszyce, Wicimice, Trzebiatów, and Mrzezyno Gryfickie.
