Audio Guide of Dar Pomorza, the Sailing Ship That Won a Wedding

Hours vary by season; it generally opens from Tuesday to Sunday, from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. in winter, extending until 6:00 p.m. in summer. I recommend checking the latest hours on the official National Maritime Museum website before you go.

A standard ticket is around 25–30 PLN (about 6–7 euros), and reduced fares are available for students and seniors. You can also buy a combined ticket to visit the ship 'Sołdek' in Gdańsk as well. Check current prices here.

A relaxed visit to enjoy the decks, cabins, and engine room will take about 40 to 60 minutes. That is the perfect amount of time for a detailed audio guide without getting tired.

Known as the 'White Frigate,' it was built in 1909 and served as a training ship for the Polish navy for 50 years, sailing around the world. It is a maritime symbol of Poland and won numerous international regattas before becoming a museum.

The best season is from May to September because of the weather, but try to go first thing in the morning (10:00 a.m.) on a weekday. In summer, weekends at the South Pier in Gdynia get quite crowded with tourists.

Unfortunately, no. As an original historic sailing ship, it has steep stairs, high thresholds, and narrow passageways that prevent access for wheelchairs or strollers.

You are at the South Pier, so right next door you have the destroyer ORP Błyskawica and the Gdynia Aquarium. It is the city’s most tourist-dense area.

Wear comfortable, non-slip shoes, since the wooden decks can be slippery and you will need to go up and down stairs. And watch your head in the lower cabins if you are tall; the ceilings are low.
