Beaches of Warsaw
Beaches in Warsaw – recreational areas outlined for sunbathing in Warsaw, Masovian Voivodeship; in Poland.
The Beaches in Warsaw began to be popular with sunbathing during the Interwar period of the 20th century. In around the Miedzeszyński Embankment (Wał Miedzeszyński) functioned a popular beach area, this included the Beach of the Kozłowski Brothers (Plaża Braci Kozłowskich) and the Poniatówka urban beach – both of which had wooden pavilions and changing rooms.[1] The modern functional beaches in Warsaw were featured in National Geographic's Top Urban Beaches in the World.[2]
The modern twenty first century functioning beaches in Warsaw are (from north to south):
- Białołęka Beach (plaża na Białołęce) in the vicinity of the Maria Skłodowska-Curie Bridge.[3]
- Żoliborz Beach (plaża na Żoliborzu) in the vicinity of the Olympic Centre (Centrum Olimpijskie).[4]
- Beach by the music club La Playa by the Wybrzeże Helskie, connected by a ferry crossing to Podzamcze.[5]
- Stadium Beach (plaża Stadion) in the vicinity of the National Stadium, connected by a ferry with the Wybrzeże Kościuszkowskie, with a built pavilion located by the beach built by the City of Warsaw.
- Beach by the Kryniczna Street (plaża przy ul. Krynicznej) located close by the Łazienkowska Thoroughfare, the beach functions for over 70–80 years in the same place.[6] The beach is connected by a ferry crossing with the Cypel Czerniakowski.[7]
- Wilanów Beach (plaża Wilanów) is located by the Aleja Wilanowska.[8]
In 2014, due to the increasing popularity of urban beaches the City of Warsaw launched a night tram line from the Poniatowski Bridge.[9]
