The presidential resort on the Hel Peninsula
Jurata
Jurata lies just 3 km north of Jastarnia - 5 minutes by car or 15 minutes by bike on a paved path through pine forest. Since the 1920s it has served as an exclusive resort - successive presidents of Poland have spent their summers here. Today Jurata combines a quiet atmosphere with a wide beach and the scent of coastal pine.
How does Jurata differ from Jastarnia?
Jurata was purpose-built as a resort in the interwar period. Villas in Baltic style still give it a unique character - quiet, green and calm, far removed from the bustle of larger seaside towns.
The presidential residence in Jurata has been in continuous use since the 1930s. The grounds are closed to visitors, but the building is visible from the promenade. It is one of the most recognisable symbols of the peninsula.
