Description
Board a comfortable yacht at the quay in front of ORIA Magic House and cruise from the heart of Gdańsk out through one of the busiest ports on the Baltic.
Start on the Motława River, passing the historic Crane, Granary Island, the Sołdek museum ship and the Polish Baltic Philharmonic. Continue past the shipyards, where the Solidarity movement was born, and see dry docks, port cranes and ships being repaired, loaded and unloaded – the port is busy all year round.
On the longer cruise, sail on past Wisłoujście Fortress and Westerplatte to the harbour mouth, where – weather permitting – the yacht briefly enters the Bay of Gdańsk. The 50-minute cruise follows a shorter route through the river and the port.
Most of the cruise runs on engine. The yacht has an open upper deck and a covered lower deck where you can shelter from wind or rain, plus a toilet on board.
Your welcome drink depends on the season: alcohol-free Prosecco in spring and summer, mulled wine in autumn and winter, with tea as an alcohol-free alternative.
Many guests say their skipper's stories about Gdańsk were a highlight of the trip.
