Sailing in Poland
World Wide Sailing Links
Sailing in Poland may be best enjoyed in the region of the Great
Mazurian Lakes located in the north eastern part of the country. This
lake district, with the highest concentration of lakes in Poland,
picturesquely set among forests, attracts thousands of water sports
enthusiasts.
The Mazurian lake land boasts Poland's largest lakes such as Lake
Sniardwy (106 sq. km.) with eight islands and Lake Mamry (104.9 sq. km.)
with thirty-three islands.
The region has a comfortable system of canals interconnecting the
lakes which allow for the functioning of both numerous passenger
services and a great number possible of sailing routes. Many marinas are
located on larger lakes such as Beldany, Nidzkie, Talty, Niegocin,
Kisajno, Mamry, Swiecajty, Mikolajskie and Rynskie. Here sailors will
find everything they might need: hoists, slips, workshops, easily
accessible electric energy sources, equipment for recharging of
batteries, etc. Chartering of yachts is also possible, but it is
advisable to make such arrangements in advance. Most popular among
sailors are sailing routes such as
Pisz - Mikolajki (28 km.)
Mikolajki - Gizycko - Wegorzewo (65 km.)
Pisz - Ruciane-Nida - Karwica (55 km.)
Gizycko - Mikolajki (37 km.).
For example, the Mikolajki harbour has moorings for about 150 yachts;
there is also a hangar for safekeeping of yachts in wintertime,
boat builder's workshop, shop with sailor's gear and two taverns.
Sailing is also popular on such lakes of the Pomeranian Lakeland as
Drawskie, Charzykowskie, Wdzydze, Gardno, Miedwie and Dabie.
Poland's largest sailing academy is located on Szczecin Bay. At
Trzebiel water sports enthusiasts can rent sailboats, improve their
knowledge of sailing and also leave yachts for wintertime storage.
The Solina artificial lake, picturesquely situated in the mountainous
landscape of the Bieszczady (southeastern part of Poland), is another
water expanse perfectly suited for sailing. Sailors in Poland need a
sailor's license and sailboat registration card. World Wide Sailing Links
