What to see in Karwia and the surrounding area - 2026 guide

Karwia is a cozy, family-friendly resort in the Władysławowo commune on the Pomeranian coast. It combines a wide, sandy beach and dunes with the tranquility of a smaller town—and is close to some of the most interesting places on the northern Baltic Sea. Here's what's worth seeing.

Beach and dunes

Karwia's main asset is its wide, sandy beach with dunes and a gentle entrance to the sea. It's a quieter alternative to crowded Władysławowo, appreciated by families and those seeking a quiet seaside getaway.

Jastrzębia Góra — the northernmost

Right next to it lies Jastrzębia Góra , home to Poland's northernmost point (the Polar Star) and a high cliff. It's a spectacular viewpoint and a popular walking destination from Karwia.

Władysławowo and the Hel Peninsula

Within a short trip, you'll find Władysławowo (port and promenade) and the Hel Peninsula —Jastarnia, Kuźnica, and Hel with its seal sanctuary. These are ideal day trips from Karwia.

Karwieńskie Błota

It is worth visiting Karwieńskie Błota – a former settlement of Dutch settlers with characteristic houses and the atmosphere of a seaside village.
