Beaches and Water Play Around Gdańsk, 7 of 7: Sobieszewo Island and Seal Reserve

Sobieszewo Island is the city's greenest and wildest corner: wide sandy Baltic beaches backed by forest trails, with two nature reserves. At Mewia Łacha, by the Vistula mouth, wild Baltic seals rest on the sandbanks and can be watched from an observation tower.
Ptasi Raj draws flocks of migrating birds to two coastal lakes, and the beaches are good for amber hunting, especially near the river mouth.
