When we think about winter holidays, we often picture snow-covered mountain peaks and warm cabins at their foothills.

However, an equally magical (though probably less obvious) place for a winter getaway is the sea. A winter stay by the Baltic Sea is truly a unique experience that will delight anyone looking to escape traditional winter scenes.

The sea in winter makes a phenomenal impression on everyone who decides to spend their holiday nearby. Here, amidst the sound of crashing waves and refreshing, iodine-rich air, every breath becomes deeper, and thoughts free from everyday rush.

Forget for a moment about crowded ski slopes — and allow yourself to discover the tranquility guaranteed by the seaside landscape in the colder months of the year.

Especially in the most beautiful town located by the Baltic Sea: Świnoujście.

What to do by the sea in winter?

Winter in Świnoujście is more than just cold days by the sea. It’s a time when the town is wrapped in calm, and the beaches, usually bustling with life, now provide silence broken only by the sound of the waves. Walking along the wide, sandy beach, you can feel not only the refreshing chill of the sea breeze but also notice the beauty of the winter light reflecting on the wet sand. It’s the perfect setting for those who want to slow down for a moment and enjoy the peaceful landscape.

It’s also worth visiting places that seem even more mysterious in winter. The Świnoujście Lighthouse, one of the tallest in Europe, offers unforgettable views of the winter sea and city landscape. Meanwhile, Fort Gerhard surprises with its history, which appears even more fascinating in the winter atmosphere.

Don’t forget about the Spa Park and the promenade, which in winter transform into a scene straight out of illustrations we admired in books. A walk here is a perfect way to spend a lazy afternoon when you just want to be close to nature, admiring its tranquility and beauty in its winter version.

Winter holidays by the sea — how to spend time with children?

Winter in Świnoujście with children can be as exciting as a summer full of sun and beach fun.

Świnoujście’s wide beaches are the perfect place for winter outdoor activities. You can build snow castles or play treasure hunters, looking for shells and amber that often wash ashore after winter storms.

In the Spa Park, families with children will also find many attractions. If the winter isn’t particularly frosty, the playground in the park will be an excellent place to spend time — interesting elements of the rope park stimulate children’s imagination and motor skills, and the boards placed around with facts about the surrounding nature provide an engaging lesson for both the youngest ones and their parents!

Summary

Winter holidays in this seaside town are a great opportunity to enjoy a calmer atmosphere, less crowded beaches, and a range of options for spending free time.

Walking on wide, empty beaches, visiting historical sites without worries about tourist crowds, and peaceful strolls through picturesque corners of the town are just some of the proposals Świnoujście offers its guests in winter.

Come and see what else can enchant you — because we guarantee it certainly will.
