Sopot

Europe's longest wooden pier (512 m) reaches into the Gdansk Bay. Leashed dogs allowed year-round without a ticket; humans pay 10 PLN from April to September.

The Crooked House of 2004, a rippling facade that became the icon of the Monte Cassino boulevard. Photograph it from the street with a leashed dog; the interior is a shopping arcade of no canine interest.

The seafront park north of the pier, shaded alleys between spa-era villas and the beach, with a fenced dog run behind the Koliba club. Links the pier to the dog beach entrances 43-45.

The signposted dog stretch of the beach between entrances 43 and 45 at the northern Kamienny Potok end. White sand, shallow water, free entry year-round.

The century-old 4 400-seat forest amphitheatre, tucked in a valley of the Tri-City Landscape Park. Surrounding trails open to leashed dogs year-round; no dogs at ticketed shows.

Sopot's flagship dog run, free and open 24h, with an agility course: jumps, weave poles and a ramp. Five minutes from the southern beach entrances.
