Gdynia's signature sights are open-air maritime: the Skwer Kosciuszki and the Southern Pier with its two museum ships (the three-masted Dar Pomorza training vessel and the WW2 destroyer ORP Blyskawica), the Orlowo cliffs with the 180 m wooden pier, and the Sea Towers modernist skyscrapers above the marina. Most exteriors are walkable with a leashed dog. The museum ship interiors (Dar Pomorza, Blyskawica) and the Sea Towers Skywalk observation deck do not admit dogs. The Gdynia Aquarium at the foot of the South Pier also does not admit dogs.
