FAVOURITE POP-OUT TRIP FROM GDANSK | On the Molo pier in Sopot |
Sopot on the Baltic coast is one of the most desired holiday destinations for many Poles. It's a town with a population of about 40,000. Together with Gdansk and Gdynia, it constitutes the Tricity agglomeration. It's famous for its wooden pier, one of the longest in Europe, sandy beaches, water sports, cafes and restaurants, as well as all sorts of clubs for those who are looking for nightlife entertainment.
I never stayed in Sopot but I often visted it on a day's trip from the other places within the Tricity, it's just perfect for this kind of trip and easy to get to. Its relaxed and laid back atmosphere makes it a wonderful retreat after chasing all the antiquities in Gdansk. After all you're on vacation, so why not wet your feet or bathe in the sea, stroll along the pier, sit down on a bench to have a waffle with blueberries and whipped cream - this has always been a must for me in Sopot ever since I first visited as a child.
Sopot is well-known for other reasons as well, but you can read about it in my tips :-) |

Excellent job. I was in Sopot when there was nothing more than a pier there. I have to see the Drunken House, ride the banana boat and do the cha cha next time :-) | NatassaPL Sat Sep 16, 2006 14:54 UTC
