Three times more fun – main image

Supposedly three cities, but actually one. It is difficult to say that we are going on holiday to, for example, Sopot or Gdynia, since ultimately we will be relaxing in a large metropolitan center composed of three cities that form a coherent and very attractive whole. The term "Tricity" has ceased to be colloquial for a decade now, especially since the so-called The Tricity Card, enabling, among others, moving between centers on a common public transport ticket or integrating traffic lights ("green wave"). Each of the resorts in the Tri-City agglomeration has something different to offer, so it turns out that a holiday in this part of the country is a triple holiday - three times more attractions, three times more joy and three times more memories.

We are visiting Sopot

If we started the story about Tricity with Sopot, where would it be? From the Forest Opera , probably known to every Pole - even from festivals broadcast on television? Maybe from the famous pier, the longest wooden pier in Europe? Or maybe from Bohaterów Monte Cassino Street, connecting the Opera House and the pier, i.e. colorful and bustling Monciak ? It's hard to imagine a holiday in Tricity without taking a stroll along this promenade, especially during the season when it is filled with theater groups. Another big attraction is the Sopot Hippodrome , one of the most modern and largest equestrian centers in Poland, a must-see for horse lovers. There are stables, a race track and hippotherapy on its premises, and the center also has guest rooms for rent. Another interesting place is Aquapark Sopot , which, in addition to a wide range of water entertainment, has an AquaSPA zone and one of the most modern bowling clubs in the Tricity.

Holidays at the Polish seaside

While relaxing in Sopot, visiting the neighboring centers of Gdynia and Gdańsk is only a matter of time. In the heart of the first one there is the largest (260 mooring places) and most modern marina in Poland , Marina Gdynia , a perfect place for organizing sailing events. Those who dream of flying will be delighted with a visit to the First Trampoline Park in Poland, JUMPCITY Gdynia . It offers over 140 trampolines in 6 zones - a solid injection of endorphins. In the city center you will find another attraction – the Gdynia Aquarium . You can see species of fish, as well as reptiles and amphibians from Africa and North America. There is an Education Section for young people, where lessons are conducted by specialists in biology, environmental protection and oceanography. In Gdańsk, you can discover the beautiful Długi Targ , in the past a merchant's route, today a representative square, the Municipal Zoological Garden , the largest ZOO in the country, as well as numerous museums, including the Amber Museum, the Museum of Tower Clocks and the Nicolaus Copernicus Chamber (in Kamienica Gotyk), dedicated to a famous scientist. It is also worth seeing the Artus Court, one of the most representative monuments on the Royal Route in Gdańsk.

Camping in Sopot

If someone is going to Sopot with a camper, car with a trailer or plans to spend the night in a tent, they can stay at one of several campsites. Among the recreational facilities, the following are worth mentioning: a recreational and sailing center located in the heart of the city, where Camping Sopot 34 is located. It offers tourists everything they could want during a holiday at the Polish seaside - it is located right next to the beach, in the center of Sopot, and at the same time provides privacy and green surroundings thanks to the proximity of the Karlikowski Forest. This is a great place for people who love sailing, both adults and children. It runs a sailing kindergarten for children (age up to 12 years) and windsurfing training, guests can also use a catamaran rental (Topcat K1), an outdoor gym and extensive catering facilities. Of course, the campsite also offers summer houses, equipped with a kitchenette, a living room with TV and a bathroom. Each also has a small terrace. A stay here will appeal to families with children, beachgoers, people who love sightseeing, and those who prefer a quiet holiday.

In Kołobrzeg, the head does not hurt
One can talk about Kołobrzeg for a long time, after all, it is one of the most beautiful Polish health resorts. Picturesquely situated at the mouth of the Parsęta River, on the Baltic Sea, it invites you for leisure stays, business trips, family holidays and romantic dates. It delights with the richness of the surrounding flora and fauna, enchants with fresh air and tempts with numerous leisure options. Many people associate holidays at the Polish seaside with Kołobrzeg. Many people remember school camps in a city full of monuments, visiting churches (with a mandatory point in the form of the Basilica of the Virgin Mary), a lighthouse or visits to museums. Those who have finished school see Kołobrzeg as a beautiful tourist resort with a strong spa accent. The famous Kolobrzeg peloid has been bringing relief to patients who come for treatment from Poland and other countries, including from Germany or Scandinavia. Effective in the treatment of rheumatic diseases and diseases of the musculoskeletal system, it is also a valuable export product (it is sent to foreign sanatoriums). There are also rumors that it helps to regain vigor - it is more and more often called "Kołobrzeg Viagra" for a reason. She has not been scientifically proven to work on this subject, but no one will deny her power. In the nineteenth century, when the seaside spa park was established, shrubs and trees were planted in peat lumps, thanks to which they absorbed more easily in the white sand. However, the real fame of the city was brought not by mud, but by salt. Already in the distant past, it was shipped by sea and land. Thanks to her, Kołobrzeg became brick early, which was equal to great wealth. Today, the city no longer produces salt, but tempts with brine baths in numerous plants. On the shore of Parsęta, in the northern part of the Salt Island , there is a brine spring - a great tourist attraction, visited by the inhabitants during the pickling season. Homemade pickles can be bought not only in the store, but also on the beach, at sellers encouraging customers with slogans: "Small-salt cucumbers tighten the lower parts".
