Situated on the Baltic Sea, the
town of Ustka is one of Poland’s best known bathing resorts. Year in
year out, the town becomes increasingly more popular with tourists both
from Poland and from abroad, with thousands visiting every year. It
should come as no surprise then that over the past few years the town
has won a string of prestigious local awards for the best summer resort
in the country.
The town boasts two beautiful beaches divided by the river Slupia. Being
situated closer to the centre, the eastern beach enjoys far greater
popularity among visitors than the western beach, which leads into the
Navy Training Centre. Much more developed and surrounded by bars,
restaurants, a concert hall, and the 19th century waterfront promenade,
Ustka’s eastern beach has also been a cause of considerable expense for
the town authorities as the beach is being gradually worn away
by the
sea.
Interesting thing to see is the unfinished pier, the construction of which was started by the Germans at the beginning of World War II, a fact which attracts legends and myths related to Nazi Germany. Worthy of a visit is the lighthouse from 1871, the Main Post Office from 1875, and a church from 1882, while an unmissable event is the International Contest of Fireworks organised annually in July.
