Sopot Pier
Molo w Sopocie
The longest wooden pier in Europe, stretching about 511 meters into the Baltic Sea and flanked by the most popular beaches in the Tricity area.
Sopot grew into a seaside resort from the 19th century. The pier is about 511.5 meters long, the longest wooden pier in Europe, and ends in a landing where boats run in summer to Gdańsk, Gdynia and the Hel Peninsula. During peak summer season there is a small entrance fee to the pier (about PLN 10). Wide sandy beaches stretch along both sides, and the spa square, grand hotels and Monte Cassino Heroes Street along the shore form the center for strolling and nightlife. Getting there: take the SKM commuter rail from Gdańsk to Sopot station, about 20 minutes.
