Six Glorious Sailing Destinations in Europe’, Poland might not immediately spring to mind when you think of sailing destinations across Europe, but that doesn’t mean it’s not worth considering… quite the opposite. Though the country is more known for its culture-filled cities and fascinating history, its countryside also bears many fruits, particularly the West Pomeranian Sailing Route. This trail encompasses a network of harbours and marinas between Szczecin and the West Pomeranian Baltic coast, with an impressive twenty locations on the way – allowing you to dive into the country’s more rural side from many sapphire shores. What’s more, you can try out many different water activities on this route, from windsurfing to kite-flying and kayaking.

A fairytale landscape deserves a fairytale palace to match – and that’s exactly what you’ll find at the exquisite Manowce Palace. Flanked by woods and close to one of the West Pomeranian Sailing Route’s many starting points, this one-of-a-kind hotel will help you enjoy the Polish countryside in an unmatched fashion. It’s a great choice if you’re travelling in a group, too – available for full hire, this hotel can host weddings, meetings and events of nearly every ilk. Time to plan that next big trip…
