A flight from Nice to Gdańsk takes you from one sea to another: from the Mediterranean to the Baltic, whose—very cool—waters connect all the countries of Northern Europe. Gdańsk owes its past wealth and present-day glamour to this sea. Made rich by maritime trade since the Middle Ages, the city dubbed ‘the Pearl of the Baltic’ has developed a flamboyant architectural heritage over the centuries. This alone would make a return flight from Nice to Gdańsk worthwhile.

But its architecture is far from being the city's only asset. It is also notable for its history, its lifestyle, and a resin that is extremely precious, especially for women: amber. The direct flight from Nice to Gdańsk is therefore the shortest route to this magnificent fossil, sometimes called to the gold of the North!

What to do in
Gdansk ?

In the Middle Ages, Gdańsk, then known as Aurea Porta, or the Golden Gate, due to its location on the Baltic Sea and its privileged position on the Vistula estuary, was a dynamic member of the Hanseatic League, a guild of merchant cities in Northern Europe. The Polish city achieved this status due to a long period of prosperity that shaped its beauty by financing a formidable architectural heritage, as well as to its culture, which encouraged artistic and craft trades. The League has long since disappeared, but its effects have lingered. The streets of the city centre are both elegant and picturesque, refined and colourful.

Life in Gdańsk is full of lightness and creativity, by cultivating pleasure and conviviality. However, Gdańsk was not all fun and games; it also has a dark past that saw it fight both Nazism and the Soviet dictatorship. Living in the moment and creating memories are the key to a successful holiday on the Baltic coast.

The sea, love, and amber

Are your children passionate about history, or studying for their school exams? Travel as a family and, thanks to the many sites that preserve its memory, dive into the history of Gdańsk. It is intertwined with the most tragic events of the 20th century: World War II and the ‘Iron Curtain’ that long divided Europe into two enemy camps. A page of culture that leaves no one indifferent.
Your offspring can rest assured: their vacation in Poland will not turn into a hard and fast lesson. The city's museums, amusement parks, and beaches also promise plenty of fun and relaxation. Beaches? Yes! Gdańsk is not just a commercial port, and many of the boats that frequent its shores are powered by sails, just like the kitesurfers who compete with them for the wind. This fun aspect is enhanced by its proximity to two renowned seaside resorts: Sopot, nicknamed the “Polish Deauville,” and Gdynia, known for its Art Deco architecture and museum ships. The three municipalities are so closely linked that they are often referred to as a “tri-city.”
While the Baltic trio is a delight for families, it is also worth a visit for those who come here, even if only for a weekend, as a couple. You will find strolling hand in hand along the longest pier in Europe or through centuries-old streets incredibly romantic.
You can gaze into each other's eyes on the terrace of a café on Mariacka Street and forget the world around you. You can party all night long like you did when you were twenty. You can visit the largest church in the country and, at the foot of the altar, find yourself dreaming of a white dress and a ring on your finger. An amber ring, of course!

Top 10 things to do in Gdańsk
See more See less
- Walk down Ulica Dluga, the ‘Long Street,’ also known as the Royal Road. It is the most beautiful avenue in the old town. It crosses it from one end to the other, from the Golden Gate to the Green Gate. With its painted facades from another era, it is a delight to behold.
- Stop at Długi Targ, the old market square. Avoid the tourist traps, especially when they offer you amber, and instead admire the architecture of the area, starting with the ornaments of the Speymann House (or Golden House) and the divine statue of the Neptune fountain.
- Take a seat at a pavement café on Mariacka Street, the city's most charming pedestrian street. It is as much appreciated for its jewellery stores filled with amber as for the myriad details of its centuries-old houses.
- Enrich your knowledge at three museums in Gdańsk: the National Museum, home to several works by Memling and Dürer; the Łaznia Centre for Contemporary Art; and the Hevelianum, a favourite among families with its educational and entertaining science experiments.
- Visit the city's most beautiful churches, from the Royal Chapel to St. Mary's Basilica, the largest church in Poland, austere on the outside with its brick walls, but magnificent once you step inside. Don't miss its monumental astronomical clock, which is over 500 years old.
- Discover all the secrets of amber at the museum dedicated to this fascinating fossilised resin. Situated not far from the Golden Gate, housed in the city's old mill, this vast establishment is home to a remarkable collection of rough stones, rare specimens containing prehistoric insects, and contemporary jewellery.
- Honour the memory of the victims of World War II at the many sites dedicated to them: the Museum of the Second World War, the Stutthof Concentration Camp Museum (about 30 kilometres from the city), and, of course, the Westerplatte Memorial, on the peninsula of the same name, where it all began on 1 September 1939.
- Head to the Gdańsk shipyards to feel the wind of revolt and freedom. This is where the Solidarność movement was born in 1980. Led by a certain Lech Wałęsa, it triggered the shockwave that, a few years later, brought down the USSR and its stranglehold on half of Europe. The European Solidarity Centre tells you the story.
- Stroll at sunset along the Sopot pier (the Molo, as the Poles call it), at 500 metres long, it is the longest pier in Europe, then spend the evening in this charming and attractive seaside resort.
- Hop aboard the two museum ships moored in the port of Gdynia: the Dar Pomorza, a century-old three-masted ship, and the Błyskawica (“Lightning”), a destroyer that survived World War II.
