In addition to a variety of charming sights, the city centre will entice you with a wide range of cultural experiences and dining options, as well as an abundance of shopping opportunities.

A little further north, where the Warnow river meets the Baltic Sea, lies the picturesque seaside resort of Warnemünde, one of the most popular sites for swimming and strolling on the Baltic coast.

Here you can admire the diversity of flora and fauna along the well-developed riding, biking, and hiking trails.
