Port Dziwnów, Maritime port in Dziwnów, Poland
Port Dziwnów sits on the Baltic coast with separate sections for commercial fishing operations and recreational sailing boats. The facilities include fishing docks, a marina for leisure vessels, and technical areas for boat repairs and maintenance work.
The port grew during the 20th century to serve fishing communities and create maritime trade links across the Baltic. The site evolved to its current layout with separate zones as shipping and recreational boating expanded over time.
The Basen Zimowy, a winter basin, shelters fishing boats and is the permanent berth of coastal rescue vessels. The passenger quay hosts boats running regular summer cruises to Kamień Pomorski and out to sea, while a newer quay is reserved for sports craft. A road bridge on voivodeship road 102, 350 m east of the basin, lifts its span every even hour for vessels that announce their passage.
Ships up to 60 m long and 11.5 m wide may enter; the port captain sets the permitted draft and can require radar assistance. The road bridge over the Dziwna, 350 m east of the Winter Basin, opens on every even hour for vessels that have announced their passage. Entry is allowed up to sea state 4°B.
The port maintains a well-organized separation between commercial fishing docks and recreational boating areas, allowing both activities to operate side by side. This layout demonstrates how traditional fishing and modern leisure boating coexist peacefully in this coastal setting.
