1. Route:
from
Entrance No. 18 to the beach in Orłowo to the
Pier in Orłowo
Length >>> about 500 meters one way, round trip about 1 km depending on the way back (will it be exactly the same course?).
Estimated time of the route >>> in calm weather, for a beginner to rowing, it may take up to 1 hour. with a small rest stop at the pier. With a small wave and light wind, for a beginner, up to 1.5 hours.

Destination >>> ideal route for learning, shallow water, sandy bottom without boulders or stones.
Attractions >>> First of all, it is a very safe route due to the natural conditions of the basin (gentle descent, shallow water and sandy bottom). In addition, the route is very interesting due to the aesthetic value of the shore at the beach in Orłowo. The pier is visible from the very beginning of the route, it is an excellent orientation point and a great attraction from the point of view of the first SUPer adventures or experiences. Sailing under the pier is an injection of unforgettable sea experiences. It's worth a try, we recommend!
Route 2:
from
entrance no. 18 to the beaches in Orłowo
to the
cliff in Orłowo
Length >>> about 1 km one way, behind the pier you can swim in a zigzag between the boulders, so the trip in both directions can be over 2 km.
Estimated time of the route >>> depending on the skill level, we assume that this is a route for an intermediate person, so it will take about 1.5 hours of paddling with a short rest by the cliff.
Difficulty level >>> due to its length, the route is at least for intermediate (especially if there is a wind and a wave). Behind the pier there are a lot of stones and boulders, especially along the shore by the cliff. On the right side after the pier, you will find a long strip of large boulders marked with black flags. We advise against swimming in that area due to the risk of falling on their sharp edges.
Destination >>> we recommend this route for at least intermediate people. The advantages of the route from the visual side are breathtaking. Swimming under the pier or the view of the cliff from the perspective of the water and the board remains in the memory for a long time!
