Rewal, Coastal village in West Pomerania, Poland.
Rewal is a coastal village in West Pomerania situated along a wide sandy beach lined with traditional wooden buildings. The settlement extends along the shoreline, blending older fishing houses with modern guesthouses and shops that face the water.
The village grew from a fishing settlement whose economy centered on maritime work and local farming for centuries. During the 20th century, it gradually transformed into a vacation destination while maintaining ties to its fishing roots.
The name derives from an old Slavic word, and today the place serves as a gathering point for both visitors and residents, particularly around the harbor and beach walks. Local traditions shape daily life, from how fish are sold to seasonal festivals that honor maritime heritage.
The village is easily reached by bus and offers numerous places to stay, eat, and shop for beachgoers. Walking is the best way to explore, the beaches are free to access, and water sports equipment rentals are scattered throughout.
Old fishing boats rest along the shore, showing how people once worked the Baltic waters. These boats are not mere monuments but many remain functional and are occasionally used for traditional fishing methods.
