Things to Do in the Tricity – Gdańsk, Sopot and Gdynia

Historic Gdańsk, seaside Sopot and maritime Gdynia. Eight attractions showing three very different sides of the Baltic coast.

Discover the destination

Explore Tricity your way.

The Tricity is one travel destination, but it is not one city. Gdańsk is built around history and architecture, Sopot around its resort atmosphere and seaside walks, while Gdynia has a strong maritime identity and open coastal landscapes.

Our eight suggestions are split between all three cities. Plan by area rather than trying to move constantly between them in a single day.

Your sightseeing plan

Three cities, three ways to spend a day

Choose one main area for each day and build around it rather than rushing back and forth across the Tricity.

The Crane on the Motława

Gdańsk: history by the Motława

Combine Long Market, the Crane and the waterfront. Choose either the European Solidarity Centre or the Museum of the Second World War as the day’s main museum visit.

Sopot Pier

Sopot: promenade and sea

Walk along Bohaterów Monte Cassino, see the Crooked House and continue towards the pier and beach. Leave time for a relaxed walk by the bay.

Dar Pomorza and the South Pier

Gdynia: a tall ship and Orłowo

Start at Dar Pomorza and the South Pier, then dedicate a separate part of the day to Orłowo and its coastal landscape.
