Nature reserve Mewia Łacha

The reserve spans across wetlands, meadows, and sand dunes at the point where the Vistula River meets the Gdansk Bay in northern Poland.

Established in 1991, the protected area serves as a critical nesting ground and resting place for numerous bird species migrating along the Baltic Sea coast.

Scientists and researchers conduct regular monitoring of Poland's only sandwich tern colony, contributing to ornithological knowledge and conservation efforts.

Visitors can access designated observation points throughout the reserve while maintaining distance from nesting areas during the breeding season from April to July.

The reserve provides a habitat where grey seals, harbor seals, and ringed seals coexist with multiple bird species at the intersection of fresh and salt water.
