Swinoujscie
Description
Located at the mouth of the Swina river, until the 1940's this was Swinermünde, a fashionable German sea-side retreat for Berliners. Today it is still a very pleasant sea-side town, and has the added attraction of being able to walk along a beach into another country as you can cross backwards and forwards between Poland and Germany.
Charge
Getting There
There are semi-regular trains to Swinoujscie taking around 90 minutes to make the journey. The PKP station is on the opposite side of the Swina river from the centre of town, but regular (and free) ferries make the crossing. N.B. there is now a second station in the town centre of Swinoujsice, but this is a Deutsche Bahn station and the trains go back into Germany rather than Poland.
