General presentation
Hel Peninsula
Long sandy cordon between Baltic and Puck Bay, with beaches, fishing villages, bicycles, water sports and summer atmosphere.
To understand what Hel Peninsula is, you have to look at Hel, Jurata and Puck Bay. These places give you a view of a territory marked by the coastline, natural spaces and the countryside and allow you to move from emblematic sites to more intimate stages.
See all
For a stay of 2 to 5 days, a quiet rhythm works well. Also to be anticipated: very frequented in summer and narrow road. A car is usually the easiest way to connect the different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be verified step by step.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Town or village
Hel
Hel It is located at the end of the long sandy cord between the Baltic and Puck Bay. The village mixes fishing harbours, beaches, pines and military tracks, with this particular feeling of reaching the end of a narrow road between two waters.
Town or village
Jurata
Jurata is the elegant resort of the Hel peninsula, known for its villas, its pier on the bay and its pine trees close to the beaches. The place is suitable for a seaside holiday more calm than the large sea fronts, with swimming on one side and water sports on the other.
Coast
Puck Bay
The bay of Puck offers more sheltered waters than the open Baltic, ideal for boarding, kitesurfing, light sailing and little agitated swimming. From the Hel peninsula, it accompanies the villages with pontoons, reeds and a changing light on the shallow bottoms.
