Park with many information panels about the first battle of World War II that took place here in September 1939. You can also see disused bunkers and a crumbled command-post, as well as a large monument to those who fought in the battle. From the monument you have a view of the Nowy Port area and the lighthouse. The bus ride also takes you past the enormous (now defunct) shipyards.
The Westerplatte Monument, also known as the Monument to the Defenders of the Coast is a war memorial located in Gdańsk, Poland, on the Westerplatte Peninsula in the Gdańsk harbour channel constructed between 1964–1966 to commemorate the Polish defenders of the Military Transit Depot in the Battle of Westerplatte, one of the first battles in Germany's invasion of Poland, which marked the outbreak of World War II in Europe.

Another quite crowded beach located bit closer to centre, behind large city park. Contains abundant leisure facilities and a pier (mentioned in See section above).
A nice white-painted wooden pier. There is a small restaurant and an ice cream parlour.
A statue of the author Günter Grass, who was born in Gdańsk, facing his famous character Oskar Matzerath from The Tin Drum. Installed in October 2015, six months after his death, and on his 88th anniversary.
Calm and very wide beach to the east of city centre in a forest. A bit harder to access than two above mentioned beaches. Water is very quiet on western side due to breakwater. Good viewpoint of container sea port. Naturist beach is a bit further on the eastern side (entrance 22).
