Its precise length and address help distinguish this structure from the other places described in the village. When looking for accommodation, you can first consider whether the beach and dunes or insights into fishing culture matter most for your trip.
Where can you see the history of fishing?
A historic trail runs along ul. Kapitańska, with information boards showing old photographs and a map of the settlement from 1930. The several half-timbered buildings from the 19th century complement this trail, offering another architectural point of interest for anyone curious about the village’s history.
The fishing harbour is for individual fishermen. Its 12 fishing boats operate in coastal waters. Fresh and smoked fish are also available to buy at the harbour. This means you can get to know the village not only through its coastal landscape, but also through fishing and a specific local food.
