Attractions in the area

In 2013, two yacht ports were opened. One is located between the sandy peninsula and the passenger harbor. This seasonal marina hosts numerous summer outdoor events, including "Cinema on Deckchairs," where tourists can enjoy free movie screenings under the starry sky. The second, a year-round marina, is situated between the drawbridge and the fishing port. The newest marina on the West Pomeranian Sailing Route accommodates 60 yachts. It features an on-site café and a bonus—Dziwnów offers a fuel station for watercraft.

This scenic walking route stretches along the dune tops throughout the town and parallel to the sandy beach. Nearby, visitors can enjoy pine forests, parks, and marked cycling trails, popular among tourists who appreciate active recreation. It is an excellent place for strolling with a pram or for older visitors. The promenade was renovated in 2012, with benches, streetlights, toilets, and showers placed at regular intervals.

Dziwnów boasts a genuine fishing port, a rarity in the region. It enchants visitors with its atmosphere, offering a chance to observe fishermen at work—particularly in spring during the herring season—and to purchase fresh fish, adding a taste of authentic seaside holidays. The region’s strong connection to the sea is showcased through events like Fisherman’s Day in Dziwnów. The festival’s highlight is a parade of boats and fishing vessels on the river, where fishermen cast nets and demonstrate their craft. It’s a unique opportunity for tourists, who once a year can ride on a fishing boat and partake in a seafood feast prepared using traditional recipes right on the port’s quay.

In Dziwnów, fishing is possible in the sea, the Dziwna Strait, Kamieński Lagoon, and Martwa Dziwna Lake. One of the favorite spots for anglers is where the Dziwna flows into the Baltic Sea. Although commonly referred to as a river, the Dziwna is actually a strait, which explains its unusual behavior. Connecting the sea with Kamieński Lagoon, its current occasionally reverses, flowing back into the lagoon and bringing salty seawater with it. This phenomenon is caused by southern winds that raise the sea level, overpowering the calm, shallow waters of the lagoon and the strait. For anglers, this creates an exciting opportunity to catch not just freshwater species like roach or perch but also saltwater fish like flounder or cod.

The western part of Dziwnów lies on Wolin Island, home to Woliński National Park—considered the most beautiful section of Poland's coastline. It is the country’s first maritime park, featuring stunning high cliffs, beech forests, and a rich variety of flora and fauna. One of the most popular attractions for tourists is the Bison Show Enclosure (Zagroda Pokazowa Żubrów), which is also home to deer, roe deer, wild boars, and white-tailed eagles.
Visitors should not miss the park's scenic viewpoints, offering spectacular panoramas of both the Polish and German coastlines. The most notable are Gosań Hill and Kawcza Góra. The park's trails also lead to picturesque lakes, the most famous being the turquoise-colored Lake Turkusowe near Wapnica.

Just 5 km from Dziwnów lies a dinosaur park, an excellent entertainment destination for children and a rich source of knowledge. Visitors are transported back to prehistoric times through fossils and mineral exhibits.
The park also features a Safari Park, home to kangaroos, llamas, fallow deer, ponies, alpacas, and many other animals. Additional attractions include inflatable slides, quads, two rope parks, a track train, an obstacle-filled playground, and bungee jumping.

The pride of the city is its well-preserved medieval urban layout, featuring remnants of city walls and the 14th-century Wolin Gate. Within this historic setting stands the magnificent late Romanesque-early Gothic Cathedral of St. John the Baptist, the oldest sacred architectural monument in Western Pomerania.
Another highlight of the city is the archaeological site in its northeastern part, which preserves traces of a fortified settlement that existed from the 11th to 13th centuries.
Throughout the season, Kamień Pomorski hosts organ concerts as part of the International Festival of Organ and Chamber Music.

Just 8 km east of Dziwnów in Łukęcin, there is a golf course designed primarily for beginners and families with children. It features nine holes of varying difficulty, 20 Driving Range stations, a Putting Green, and 18 mini-golf lanes. The course lies on flat terrain, accented by streams and small water features that add variety. For those seeking a break from golfing, the course includes a bar and a designated grill area.
For enthusiasts of golf’s etiquette and exclusive atmosphere or for professional players, the elite Amber Baltic Golf Club in Kołczewo, 12 km southwest of Dziwnów, is a must-visit. Spanning 66 hectares, it boasts the championship-class "Amber" golf course.

Only 47 km separate Dziwnów from Świnoujście, located in the northwestern corner of Poland. This unique city spans 44 islands and lies right on the border with Germany.
Top attractions in Świnoujście include the Świnoujście Fortress, comprised of three forts on the islands of Wolin and Usedom, the breakwaters extending far into the sea, the tallest lighthouse on the Baltic coast, and the "Karsiborska Kępa" bird sanctuary managed by the Polish Society for the Protection of Birds on Karsibór Island. Another highlight is the "Karsiborskie Paprocie" nature reserve, located in the picturesque Świdny Forest.
