Szczecin Travel Guide

Poland

Szczecin is a city of 407,811 people in north-west Poland, close to the German border and centred on the Oder River. It is an important regional centre and port city, with a different feel from Poland’s inland historic cities.

Most visitors arriving by air use Solidarity Szczecin-Goleniow Airport, the city’s listed airport. Szczecin does not have any notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so it is better treated as a riverside city than a beach base.
