From the maps you can see that it’s way northern Germany right next to Poland. Where we stayed was only a few miles from the Poland border.
We got there a bit late, it's about 3 to 4 hours north of Berlin. We checked into the hotel, it's right off of the beach. Just back from the white sandy beach was both a paved and gravel walkway. Many people walking and biking along this path.
Between the fresh sea air and the pleasant temperature, it was great. We walked along the path and stopped for dinner. 
We also walked out on a very long pier with many gift shops.
Back at the hotel there was a two man band playing old American rock and roll songs. 
From Norom and Ute's balcony we watched them play their music and had a couple beers. 
We had breakfast in the hotel the next morning. It was complementary with the room. It was a buffet and amazing how many things they had in it, including cooked to order stuff After breakfast we rented bikes and headed towards Poland. We were able to bike right on into Poland, not even a check point.
The ride was wonderful, perfect temps and flat all the way. At the border between Germany and Poland we stopped for a photo opt!
In Poland we stopped and had a snack in a market by the beach. I had to try a Polish beer and the place we stopped had smoked fish as it’s main attraction.
Many years ago when I lived in Germany I loved smoked eel! Most of the little festivals had it as a snack food. What you see on Bina’s plate is smoked eel. Of course I had several large chunks of it on my plate also. 
Bina found a stand selling amber jewelry. She ended up buying a good size amber and silver piece. Poland did not seem to use the euro; they use money called the zloty (Pronounced zwotty).We got four zloty for one euro.
Finished in Poland back to Germany and our hotel. 
Also.. before we headed home I did go swimming! The water temperature was probably around 62 or 63 degrees but I loved it!!!
