Jastarnia has its own fishing harbour, which supplies the town and its restaurants with fresh fish. If you go there at the right time, you may buy some fish straight from the fishing boat. Some of the fish is exported abroad and you can sometimes see enormous foreign lorries waiting there. However, the local fishermen keep complaining about fish stocks becoming more and more depleted, so that some day we may be deprived of the fish and chips we like so much.
From the port you can take boat trips to the open sea or to Gdynia but only in the summer months. You can also hire a traditional Kashubian boat for a trip on the bay as well as kayaks, water bikes and scooters, and windsurfing equipment.

Directions: On the bay side of the town, right in the centre
