🌊 ABOUT THE TOWN

Kołobrzeg — a seaside spa town by the sea

A seaside town and spa resort in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship — a wide beach, a port, a pier, a lighthouse, brine graduation towers and a rich history.

📜 From a princely fishing village to a Baltic resort

The first written mention of Kołobrzeg comes from 1459 — the village was then under the rule of the Pomeranian princes and lived from fishing in the Baltic. For the following centuries the settlement remained a small, self-sufficient fishing community, its rhythm of life set by seasonal trips out to sea, storms and smoking fish for sale.

The town is alive all year round — from sunbathing and cruises to sanatorium stays. The seaside promenade, the pier and the walkways are busy regardless of the season.

The lighthouse in Kołobrzeg at the entrance to the port
The lighthouse — the most photographed building of the entire coastal stretch.

🗼 The lighthouse — symbol of Kołobrzeg

The symbol of Kołobrzeg is the historic lighthouse at the entrance to the port, on the grounds of a former fort. You can climb it — from the upper gallery the view stretches over the port, the pier and the panorama of the town.

Right next to the lighthouse begin the pier and the seaside boulevard, and the marina offers boat cruises along the coast.

🏖️ Beach, pier and promenade Velo Baltica

A wide, sandy beach with a gentle entrance to the sea stretches along the entire length of the town and — thanks to the microclimate — is recommended for families with children. In summer the designated bathing areas are watched by WOPR lifeguards, and in the centre of the resort there is a well-kept pier with viewpoints.

Kołobrzeg has no shortage of attractions for any weather: the marina with boat cruises, the brine graduation towers and spa parks, the Co-Cathedral, museums, the eco-park and the seaside promenade.

Kołobrzeg in winter
A December morning on the beach — the season of silence.

❄️ Four seasons by the Baltic

Kołobrzeg is a town that changes its face with the seasons. In summer (June–September) it pulses with life: fish-frying places around the centre, open-air concerts, festivals near the pier, evening walks along the beach and queues for ice cream. September and October bring the so-called 'Polish Indian summer' — an empty beach, warm sand and some of the most beautiful sunsets of the year, when the sun goes down right over the sea.

Autumn and winter bring storms that draw photographers from all over Poland. White crests of waves crash against the port breakwaters and the pier, amber and shells wash up on the beach, and the lighthouse tower rises in the background — sometimes snow-covered to the very top in winter. It is also the season for lovers of quiet: a walk on an empty beach on a December morning and a coffee in one of the year-round guesthouses is one of the most soothing experiences on this part of the coast.
