We kayaked 6+km in light rain. It was good exercise and fun. Piotr was very patient and a gracious guide. I would do this tour again and would recommend this to anyone that is at least a little fit. You will have fun! There is a little shop near the kayak spot where you can buy cheap drinks and snacks too.

I definitely recommend visiting Gdańsk from this perspective :) even beginners will be able to do it, and if someone misses the spot while taking pictures on insta, guide Szymon (whom we sincerely greet) and swimming sideways will show us;) for us, the trip was a fantastic adventure full of laughter :)) )

Our guide Szymon was really very nice and explained everything well beforehand. During the tour, interesting facts were told about Gdansk and photos were taken. Watching the sunset from a kayak at sea was really a highlight. I can only recommend this unforgettable experience! Five stars for it and all the best for Szymon! Greetings from Sofia and David
