Mountain sailing [89]<br />
In southern <strong>Poland</strong>, amidst hills and mountains, behind<br />
dams on mountain rivers, there are beautiful artificial lakes.<br />
On many of them you will be sailing in the shadows of giant<br />
mountains: Otmuchowskie Lake in the Sudetes foothills, Nysa<br />
Kłodzka River (length: 6 km, breadth: 3 km), Żywieckie Lake<br />
in the Small Beskids Mountains, Soła River (length: 8 km)<br />
and Czorsztyn Lake in the Pieniny Mountains.<br />

The capital of mountain sailing [90]<br />
Solina Lake (Eastern Beskids) is considered to be the<br />
capital of mountain sailing. Fancifully shaped shorelines (over<br />
160 km), small capes, impressive peninsulas, hidden bays,<br />
picturesque islands covered with forests, form a water reservoir<br />
with changeable wind conditions: storms and sudden<br />
calms. These are the perfect conditions for mountain sailing.<br />
Length of the lake: 25 km, breadth: to 2.5 km, average depth:<br />
35 m (maximum 60 m). In some of the yachting and health<br />
resorts around Solina Lake there are well-developed service<br />
points (boat rental), restaurants and hotels.<br />
And in the evenings you can hear the murmur of voices<br />
from around camp fires, a distant disco and pub, all to the<br />
aroma of grilled local fish.<br />

Adventure in the wind<br />
On board with the wind<br />
On board with the wind [91]<br />
You can practice windsurfing everywhere in <strong>Poland</strong> where<br />
there are yachting centers and the Great Masurain Lakes are<br />
top of the list. On the western shore of the Baltic Sea there<br />
are favourable conditions for windsurfing on the southern<br />
and northern side of Wolin Island located on the borders<br />
between <strong>Poland</strong> and Germany. Strong western winds are<br />
prevalent in this area.<br />
Puck Bay, separated from the Baltic Sea by the Hel Peninsula<br />
(a 34 km long, narrow sandy isthmus) is the capital of<br />
summer sports. Its inner bay, the Small Sea, has a surface of<br />
104 square kilometers and is up to 9 m in depth. Temperate<br />
water, low waves, dominant westerly winds along the shore<br />
creates ideal conditions for windsurfing.<br />
