LOCATION<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Gdansk Bay\u2019s surfing hotspots include Cha\u0142upy-Ku\u017anica, Jastania and Rewa. They are all located in the sheltered part of Gdansk Bay, very close to the Tricity area (Gda\u0144sk-Sopot-Gdynia) in the Pomerania region of Poland. Rewa beach is the closest hotspot to Gdansk but all of them are easily accessible by roads and public transport. There are bus routes and local trains to all of these locations from Gdynia. The Tricity area is easily reached by ferry from Sweden (Karlskrona-Gdynia and Nyneshamn \u2013 Gda\u0144sk). There is an international airport in Gdansk, which has many connections. Rewa Beach\u2019s geographical location is 54\u00b038\u2032N 18\u00b031\u2032E.<\/p>\n

GDA\u0143SK BAY SURFING HOTSPOTS <\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Gdansk Bay\u2019s surfing hotspots are located between the Polish mainland and Hel Peninsula \u2013 an area not really considered as open sea. Three of the spots are located at the peninsula: Cha\u0142upy, Ku\u017anica and Jastarnia, while Rewa is located on the mainland. The waters of Gdansk Bay are relatively shallow and create very good conditions for beginners and kitesurfing schools. Despite the bay\u2019s waters being exposed to the open sea, they maintain their higher temperatures. Different winds blow in the bay with Cha\u0142upy \u2013 Ku\u017anice – Jastarnia having a much calmer character than Rewa. All locations are busy in the high season, but the sheer length of the coast guarantees that there is enough space for all kinds of surfers, even in summer. It should be noted that all kitesurfing spots are located away from the main beaches.<\/p>\n

The Tricity area offers numerous places of interest and sightseeing attractions, to name just a few: the Solidarity Museum, WW2 Museum, Marine Museums, the historical Old Town district in Gdansk and the relaxing resort of Sopot.
