Świnoujście

Baltic seaside spa town on Poland's north-western tip, Świnoujście sits across three islands at the mouth of the Świna river, with a wide sandy beach stretching along the coast into Germany. The town borders the German resort of Ahlbeck, connected by a continuous beach promenade, and a tunnel opened in 2023 now links its two main islands. A walkable centre with a solid food-and-drink scene makes it a practical base for the wider coast.
