HIGHLIGHTS OF POLAND

 

A VARIETY OF KITESURFING CONDITIONS

Poland has a spot for every level of kiter and every discipline. You can ride in the shallow waters of the Bay of Puck or enjoy great spots by the sea in beautiful locations like Kuźnica or Jastarnia.

 

A NATURE LOVER’S PARADISE

There’s a variety of seashores in the park (cliff shores, dune shores, and low floodplain shores). Diverse topography and the associated habitats make the flora of the park very rich and varied.

 

BEAUTIFUL AND WIDE BEACHES

There are many breathtaking beaches throughout the country, so if you find yourself desiring a quick break from kitesurfing, you can enjoy sunbathing, yoga, or jogging by the seaside.

 

LOTS OF INTERESTING ATTRACTIONS

Besides kitesurfing, you can experience beautiful sunsets at the beach, go for a bike ride, and visit military museums or the seal sanctuary in Hel. At night, there are plenty of parties you can attend with other kitesurfers. There’s no way you’ll be bored!

ABOUT THE COUNTRY

Brief History of Poland 

Poland has a long and rich history dating back to prehistoric times when Slavic tribes arrived on this territory and settled it. In 966, Duke Mieszko I converted to Christianity and, by baptism, brought Poland to the community of Western nations. The 16th century was Poland’s “Golden Age.” During the Renaissance, Poland advanced culturally, making significant strides in the arts and sciences. There was a time when Poland was the largest country in Europe, but it was erased from the world map for 123 years. It was only in 1918, after World War I, that Poland reappeared on the map of Europe. Shortly thereafter, on September 1st, 1939, Poland was invaded by Nazi Germany and World War II began. Shortly thereafter, Poland fell under Soviet control. A modern Polish state arose after the first elections of the Third Polish Republic, and Poland now has a new constitution which was signed in 1997. The country has been a member of NATO since 1999 and joined the European Union in 2004. After years of turbulent history, Poland has finally found some stability and a chance for growth and peace.

 

Things to Do When There’s No Wind 

There are plenty of things to do when there is no wind. You can relax on beautiful beaches or try other sports like paddle boarding and cycling. You can visit local forests and try local food—fresh fish and common Polish dishes like Pierogi and  Gołąbki can’t be beat. When the sun sets, you’ll find that night clubs are not only open during the holiday season, but they’re a great opportunity to take a quick break from sport and enjoy free time with friends. 

 

Getting to Poland

Getting to Poland is very easy. You can get to Poland by airplane and, when you arrive, rent a car to explore the country. Renting a car is quick and easy, as there are multiple car rental companies near the airports and the prices are very reasonable.The closest airport to Hel peninsula is located in Gdańsk, which is approximately two hours away from Hel (if you don’t have a car, you can also get there by bus or train).
