The Coast of Kolberg — Photo taken by Author

Last summer, my boyfriend and I went on a holiday to Kolberg (also known as Kołobrzeg in Polish)!

Coming from Germany, many people here go to the German “Ost- or Nordsee” (aka the Baltic or the Nordic Sea) in the very North of Germany for a beach holiday.

But… this coast continues all the way to Poland!

And so, instead of going to the typical coasts of Germany that we’ve been to quite a few times, we wanted to explore a new place!

It was the first time we went and we absolutely loved it!

Preparations

Before our travel, we booked the essentials:

  • Travel: via Flixbus (from Berlin there’s a direct connection for 4–5 hours)
  • Accommodation: via Airbnb (we got a very modern Airbnb with kitchen and large living room and bedroom for around 60€ a night — for both of us)
