A short guide on how to plan a successful seaside holiday all year round - in spring, summer, autumn, and winter. So that you can truly rest and relax. We suggest and inspire you to discover the charms of the Polish coast not only in summer!
We know that the Baltic Sea is beautiful at any time of year - you don't have to convince us of that. We also know that there are people who cannot imagine coming to the seaside in winter or autumn, because for them spring and summer moments on the beach are the most beautiful. We understand that! However, we also know that there is a group of undecided and unconvinced people regarding the fact that outside the season you can expect a successful holiday by the Baltic Sea and have a great time. That is why we decided to show you that a holiday by the sea can be beautiful regardless of the season, whenever you want!
Here is a handful of practical tips when planning a holiday or vacation by the Polish sea, at any time of year.
Spring holiday by the sea
- in spring, accommodation and stay prices are lower than in summer
- more iodine in the air than in summer
- fewer tourists than in the summer period
- March is a calm month when you won't encounter crowds - the perfect time to rest in peace
- nature awakens to life, greenery blooms, bird songs appear - you can experience a beautiful moment of awakening
- changeable weather - from snow to beautiful sunshine
Dates worth considering:
- May Day holidays, June holidays - long weekends worth taking into account - gaining a few extra days off, but on the other hand, you have to expect more tourists,
- Easter - Easter holidays by the sea are an interesting idea, you can spend them with loved ones or just with your significant other
- March 8th - Women's Day - a perfect way to relax with friends or a romantic surprise stay with your partner
Holiday proposals:
May Day holiday by the sea
Corpus Christi weekend - June holidays
"Inverted weekend", meaning a weekday stay
What to plan? Activity proposals:
- outdoor activities - walks on the beach, Nordic Walking, bike trips - spring days are an ideal time for such activities when the heat is not bothersome, and it is not freezing either,
- relaxation in an outdoor jacuzzi - a heated jacuzzi surrounded by spring nature is an excellent idea
- climbing wall for children and adults - it’s worth trying something new!
- bike trips around the area
Summer holiday by the sea - vacation
- high temperature favours sunbathing and splashing in the Baltic Sea
- long day, short night - more time for activities and rest
- peak season - most attractions, most possibilities, but also the most tourists
Dates worth considering:
- August 15th - extended weekend
- last week of August - accommodation and stay prices lower than peak season
- end of June - before the end of the school year and the start of holidays by the sea is quieter
Holiday proposals:
Family holidays by the sea - animations and attractions for young and old, among which everyone can find something for themselves, the key to a successful holiday
Weekend relaxation with dinner - short holiday with meals is a convenient option that you can choose even last minute, when a free weekend or surprisingly beautiful weather appears
What to plan? Activity proposals:
- changeable weather can spoil plans - a hotel with a pool, animations for children or a themed evening for guests can save the situation, so it is worth planning backup activities in case of unfavorable weather
- take time to unwind - a lot happens at the seaside in summer, an excess of impressions and environmental stimuli can be overwhelming - a morning walk on the beach, a moment of meditation or a relaxing spa massage work wonders then,
- sunbathing - a must! Blankets, deck chairs, sunscreen, head covers, and toys for the little ones should be in your suitcases
- pleasant cooling down - high temperatures can cause overheating and dehydration, so remember to drink water and cool down - we recommend jacuzzi, sea baths or pool relaxation, especially in the outdoor pool on the roof with a view of the Baltic
Autumn holiday by the sea
- the world slows down after summer experiences, allowing you to unwind
- Indian summer - September by the sea is delightful!
- high prices present in the peak summer season fall
- a perfect moment to enjoy the last warm sun rays
Dates worth considering:
- Halloween - many facilities prepare special offers and attractions for the whole family
- long November weekend - November 11th
- Boy's Day - September 30th - a surprise rest or romantic moments with your partner as a gift
