Hel Peninsular Hel Peninsular No Data

Description


Jutting some 20Km out into the Gulf of Gdansk, the Hel peninsular creates a natural bay that protects the three cities of Gdansk, Gdynia and Sopot. At the same time it provides endless jokes for English speakers! The long beaches and thick forest provide for lots of activities and the main towns on the strip all appear to be popular and busy

Charge




Getting There

There are several ferries a day from the centre of Gdansk to Hel at the very tip of the spit, taking about 2 (direct) to 3 (via Sopot) hours to complete the trip. Alternatively there are trains (a couple of direct, otherwise regular to Gdynia and then approximately hourly from Gdynia) that take about 2 1/2 to 3 hours. As return prices are double singles, you can do what I did and go out one way and come back the other (ferry then train probably easier)
