I can definitely recommend a visit and stay here. The food is great, the weather is nice, and the people are friendly. It's a wonderful city to explore. Tomorrow, I'm going to visit Hel and the next town along the seacoast. I'll definitely come back.

How safe is Gdynia for women?

I feel like Gdynia is generally safe - especially in the more tourist districts like City Centre or Orłowo. I feel safe coming back home after dark both by public transport and walking. It's also pretty safe for people looking alternative and/or queer as this part of Poland is pretty tonerant. Drunk people might insult you but most probably won't attack you.

Gdynia in my opinion is a city with low crime, but we can experience some dangerous situations. Usually some creepy old and drunk man will come to you, call you a slut and go away, but sometimes they are more persistent. From my experience i can tell that other women are always here to help when they see you are in danger, or when you scream for help. Be safe girlies 💋

Gdynia fortunately it’s a very safe city. And i feel as save here as it can get. I had never have any problems here. I very often walk home from parties at night and only once I had bad experience nothing really happened but some men started to harass me not in the violent way but they were pretty annoying.

About me

Hi girls! I'm an 18 year old Polish student, living in Gdynia my whole life, but I take every chance I have to get away from here and travel the world. I love to read romance books and crochet in my free time from working. I'm a very outgoing person, you don't have to ask me twice to go to the club or a bar, nor to do the most random and a little bit stupid thing, living for the plot right? I would love to meet some of y'all, I'm planning to go abroad for the summer to work, any volunteers?
