Sopot is the Cannon Beach of Poland. With locals and tourists drawn to Monte Casino, the pedestrian-only street that begins with the pier on the Baltic Sea. Just west of Gdansk, Sopot is the central city in the tri-cities of Gdansk, Sopot and Gydia.
Though seemingly direct, lush and clean
on this road n'ry a soul could tell
over meadows of yellow and green

actually takes one straight to Hel.
The Jan Sobieski Castle is a beautiful hotel on the route to Hel. It would be a great place for a weekend getaway with a book and no agenda.

The road to Hel is bordered with yellow fields of mustard or safflower or something. It was pretty regardless.
The food was good in Hel, at least at this cafe we ate fish and salad which didn't seem sinful in the least.
We enjoyed our 10 days at the Haffner Hotel in Sopot. With a salt-water pool, a dry sauna and steam room, plus an exercise room that was nearly always empty, it was a great place to work up a sweat and unwind.
Several blocks from our hotel--Morza Bałtyckiego (Baltic Sea). Fine white sand. Who would of thunk ! Sun and beachcombing on the Baltic
The architechture of the area is strongly influenced by the Germany presence in Gdansk Sopot and Gydnia. This area was part of Germany after the first Division of Poland in the early 1700s
The Sopot area has a long history as a seaside resort for Europeans throughout the last 250 years
The Grand Hotel, which faces the Sea, is the most historic resort in the city. It boasts a long list of famous and infamous leaders and celebrities from countries throughout the world.
