This private nature experience begins with a 6.6 km guided walk through the west side of the Mewia Łacha Nature Reserve, at the easternmost tip of Sobieszewo Island. Rated moderate due to sandy and uneven terrain, the loop begins in peaceful pine woodland before joining a cobbled trail along the Vistula River. An early observation point offers views of waterfowl and, with luck, elegant grey herons. The path then leads into wilder dune landscapes, where wild roses bloom and the air is alive with damselflies and dragonflies. At the far end of the spit, we reach a raised platform—perfect for scanning the estuary for seabirds and grey seals resting on the distant sandbars. After a walk along the coast, we loop back through forest trails before heading out on a 60–75 minute private boat excursion for an even closer view of the seals and coastal birdlife.

Nearly 100 species of water and marsh birds have been recorded within the reserve, not including the many other bird species that inhabit the surrounding forests. Depending on the season, birds of note that can be spotted here include:

  • White-Tailed Eagle

  • Curlew Sandpiper

  • Sandwich Tern

  • Caspian Tern

  • Broad-Billed Sandpiper

  • Pied Avocet

  • Northern Lapwing

  • Eurasian Oystercatcher

  • Common Ringed Plover

  • Spotted Redshank

  • Common Shelduck

  • Sanderling

  • Grey Heron

  • Great Cormorant
