Diving in the Baltic Sea is aimed at those who have some practice already. The underwater relief near the coast of Poland is quite complex. The currents change rapidly and it is quite problematic for a new diver to cope with them. Nevertheless, the remnants of more than 200 ships that have sunk in different epochs are resting on the seabed. The most popular dive sites are the coastal cities of Gdynia, Gdansk, Ustka, and Leba. Fans of extreme diving will like the underwater caves of Snezhnye Studnya, Bystra, and Mentusya. Solinsky lake is the most suitable for sailing. The lake is of artificial origin and has numerous curves. Optimal winds are blowing there, making it possible to sail under ideal conditions. Also, you can sail on the Mazurian lakes.
