Meet at Sopot Marina, walk 10 minutes from Plac Zdrojowy 2, and board a comfortable two-deck yacht for a 105-minute Baltic cruise. Depending on the wind, you may sail toward Gdańsk or Gdynia. Your skipper may let you take the helm, while Prosecco or mulled wine, blankets, water, and a toilet are provided.

“It was a nice sunset cruise with a knowledgeable and hardworking shipper that spoke great English. Maybe the maximum amount of 12 people should be changed to 10 for better comfort, but it was fine this time. The entrance should be a little bit more clear though! We found it by luck :-) Those are small details. We had a great time! Thank you!”

4.Yacht Cruise Around the Bay with Welcome Drink

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 231 reviews · 50 - 105 minutes · from $26

Join Premium Yachting at Sopot Marina for a relaxed 50 to 105 minute cruise on a two-deck sailing yacht. You can help steer, ask the skipper about sailing, and enjoy views toward Orłowo, Gdańsk, or the Gulf of Gdańsk. Prosecco is served from spring through September, with mulled wine in the colder months.

“I had a lovely time. It's a perfect activity to spend a couple of hours. You can stay and chat at the back of the yacht, you'll learn lots about sailing etc as the skipper is happy to answer questions. You can also move to the front, where it's quieter and just enjoy the gentle rocking of the yacht and stunning views. If you're looking for a high adrenaline, alcohol fuelled fun this one is probably not for you. But if you need a couple of hours to decompress and chill, I can't imagine a better place to be.”

The $114 price includes transport, mine entry, and return travel, but not food or hotel pickup.

“The trip itself was good. The zoo was amazing. It may have cost a little less if we had booked a taxi there and back without having the whole package. The zoo itself is only about 15PLN so cheap enough to get in. If you want to feel more safe and know you're going to get there and back safely then this trip is ideal. It said about getting beverages included but we didn't get any. Driver ran late but rang me to say he was going to be late which was good. Only us on transport and had more than enough time in the zoo while driver waited then…”
