It is a great experience when you stand on the pier and a ship sails past you.

Świnoujście Beach

Highlight • Beach

The beach in Świnoujście is the widest beach on the island of Usedom. Sand that has been eroded from other parts of the island is constantly washing up here. The beach is sandy and several kilometers long. To the east, it is bordered by the western pier with the Mühlenbake (mill beacon), and to the west by the German-Polish border off Ahlbeck. However, this border does not hinder beach walks toward Ahlbeck.

The water is initially shallow, so even children can swim. Beach chairs are still relatively rare; most people bring their own windbreaks or blankets. Directly outside the town, the beach is quite busy in good summer weather.

Toward Ahlbeck, however, it becomes quieter. Those seeking complete peace and quiet can take the ferry across the Świna River. Then find a spot on the beach on the island of Wolin, east of the Świna. Until Międzyzdroje – about 15 kilometers away – there are no other beach resorts, and everyone can find a quiet spot on the almost deserted beach.

The sound of the waves, accompanied by the warming autumn sun, fills the air as we walk along the beach.

In the distance, towards the horizon, flocks of birds fly by, one after another.

Are the geese now beginning their long journey south?

Meanwhile, the salty taste of the sea lingers on our lips.

The view of the clouds is almost mystical.

Like pillars, they seem to touch the ground.

Without preparation and without great expectations, we took the UBB to Świnoujście this morning. We just wanted to have a look and stroll around a bit 😁 Simply following our noses, or Komoot, we let ourselves drift and strolled towards the harbor. With a look at the map, we decided to walk along the harbor to the end, or the …

Hiked again to Świnoujście 🇵🇱. Nicely along the beach, took a look at the mill on the pier, which is the landmark at the harbor entrance, and continued into the harbor, past old fortifications. From the disappointed old town quickly back to the promenade and the beach and back to Heringsdorf 👫🇵🇱🇩🇪

Actually, it was supposed to be just a leisurely stroll but then our ambition took hold and we marched to the windmill in Swinoujscie.

The bus can be used free of charge with the spa card
Tip: Bring a muzzle for hikers with a dog.
The journey takes about an hour.

Today, besides visiting the icy lake 🌊🧊 (walking on the mirror-smooth beach the whole time was too dangerous after yesterday's fall), I also admired the beautiful villas 🕍. I find the seaside resort architecture absolutely stunning. 🏛 Swinemünde was bustling with activity. A positive point is that all the sidewalks were cleared. However, the beach and the Swine River were …
