Occupancy close to 100%. Norwegians and Swedes will choose these cities during the May weekend

This year’s May Festival will last three days, but already on Thursday there was an increase in tourist interest and greater traffic on regional roads on the Baltic Sea. The current IMWM forecasts show up to 24 degrees on the west coast on Saturday, which encourages tourists to make spontaneous reservations.

May weekend on the Baltic Sea. It will be warm, places are disappearing

It is not only in Sopot that hotel rooms are disappearing “by the hour”. In Western Pomerania, the occupancy rate in accommodation facilities is already close to 100%.

– This will be a weekend of city breaks, short trips and taking advantage of the weather during spontaneous trips close to where we live. So far, signals from the tourism industry have been very positive, admits Hanna Mojsiuk, president of the Northern Chamber of Commerce in Szczecin. – Most hotels have no places left, but it is still worth writing, calling and coming to the Baltic Sea – he encourages.

According to President Mojsiuk, the most popular areas are Świnoujście, Kołobrzeg, Rewal and Międzyzdroje. The popularity of the coastal strip closer to Koszalin and the Drawsko Lake District and West Pomeranian lakes is also growing.

– Poles are now relaxing on the Baltic Sea without shame, because we have the highest quality hotels, modern SPAs, a high standard of wellness, and when the weather is favorable, you can spend your time more and more actively. For example, we see the growing popularity of bicycle rentals – says Kamil Pyclik, president of the Świnoujście branch of the Chamber. He points out that during the May weekend, Świnoujście and Międzyzdroje will be bustling resorts that are starting a good season.

Not only Germany. Tourists from these countries appreciate Poland

The coastal range increasingly attracts international tourists. German tourists have been choosing to relax on the other side of the border for years. The Chamber informs that during the May weekend in the Baltic Sea resorts we will also meet Swedes, Norwegians and Czechs. For tourists from Northern Europe, the Polish seaside is becoming an increasingly attractive destination. One of the Swedish travel portals recommends to its readers a “riviera for the whole family” with prices up to 30-50 percent lower. than in Sweden.
