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.
A 28m high lighthouse built in 1893. It features a time ball which was used to synchronize clocks on ships.
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.
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).
