Board two extraordinary ships that survived the Second World War and sailed into legend — the destroyer ORP Błyskawica, the oldest preserved destroyer in the world, and the magnificent tall ship Dar Pomorza, once a globe-circling sail-training vessel. This is maritime history you can touch.
What to expect
Step aboard ORP Błyskawica — which famously defended the Isle of Wight during the Blitz — and explore her gun decks, torpedo tubes, and officers' quarters largely intact. Directly alongside, Dar Pomorza's soaring three-masted rigging and gleaming teak decks evoke the golden age of sail. A knowledgeable guide (available to book privately through the museum) turns a self-guided wander into a rich, moving narrative.
Good to know
Both ships are a 10–15 min walk from the cruise terminal along the waterfront promenade — no transport needed. Opening times are typically 10:00–17:00; verify before your port day. Combine with the nearby Emigration Museum in Gdynia (rated 4.7 on TripAdvisor) for a full, walk-only cultural morning.
