Baltic and Puck Bay
Cruises and boat charters
Jastarnia's yacht harbour is a base for recreational, fishing and private charter cruises - from fast RIB motorboats to private catamarans with skipper and hostess. The two surrounding waters (open Baltic and the calmer Puck Bay) mean you can choose between an adrenaline ride and a quiet family cruise on the same day.
Two bays, many formats
Puck Bay (shallow, relatively calm, warm in season) is the ideal ground for family cruises, sailing training and fishing trips. Depth of a few metres, no large swell, scenic shores with nature reserves and colourful lighthouses.
The open Baltic off Jastarnia opens up further routes - to Hel, Władysławowo, Gdynia, Gdańsk and Sopot. Jastarnia's harbour handles sailing yachts, motor boats and fishing cruises; the deeper Puck marina serves larger units.
