My mother and cousin traveled there a few years ago for the annual get-together of folks from Germany (although she lives in the USA and he in Austria). My cousin's father had a fish store there, probably in the 40s and 50s and was asking if there are any fish or seafood restaurants there now. He didn't see any when they just visited. Thanks.

Hello VT friends and members, We will be in Szczecin for a long weekend in teh middle of July. We are also thinking about going on a daytrip or at least a sidetrip to another town from Szczecin, preferably to the Baltic coast. Ideas already include Kolobrzeg or Swinoujscie. So what are the best otions to get there by public transport? For me it looks like trains are kind of slow on these routes. Please feel free to suggest any other places which shouldn't be missed as sidetrips when in Szczecin. If anyone is interested in a little VT meeting in Szczecin around the 17th until the 19th of July, please don't hesitate to contact me. Thank you HORSCHECK

Hi, does anyone know of a bus service that departs from Szczecin to Berlin after 9pm on a Thursday? Train does not seem to be an option as the last train leaves Szczecin at 8.53pm and I might not make it on time. The two bus companies I'm aware of (Interglobus and BerlinLinienBus) all have their last bus service around 6pm. Anyone know of another option? Are there any other airport shuttles to Berlin besides Interglobus? Thanks!

Hello! My name is Florin 22yo, from Romania. I was in Szczecin 2 weeks ago, and I like that city so much, and i want to plan my next trip there. To problem is that, 2 weeks ago I stayed at a hostel, named Amicus. The next time I want to be in middle of october, and the lady from there said that it will be full of students that time :| This will be a big problem. There I payed 32 zl/day. Can anyone tell me what I can find there at around this price? Coz, I found some pensjonat Rika near the centrum but on the website says that cost 35 zl/ day and when I called, it`s 80 zl... the maixum that I can pay is 40-50 zl/day as I want to stay there 5 or 7 days. Please Help me! I`ll appreciate!!

Hi We are going to Szszecin for my buddies stag party and i was wondering if there are some organized pub crawles. If not where should we go? We are all students between 25 and 30 and would prefere hangouts for the young crowd rather than some trandy and expensive night clubs. We were also unable to find hostels in Szczecin(ideally close to the center or train station). How about "bary mleczne"? What is the best one? Can anybody help? Cheers Bernard

When Poland joined the Schengen area, the border between the German and the Polish part of the island of Usedom was opened for traffic, making travelling there much easier. We had planned to go to the Bison park and the Museum of Nature, then on to Kamien Pomorski, had got some Zloty, a good map of Swinoujscie and left early. It was easy to follow the signs towards the ferry, but when it was our turn,a young employee walked up to us and told us we couldn't take the ferry. I quote: "You cannot take this ship,it is for people from this city only". So we went back to the German part of the island and saw the bisons in the much smaller park there. Is this ferry off-limits for tourist all the time? Or was it because we were early and it was still rush hour for the many commuters? We didn't see any signs except the main ones, leading us to the ferry. Does anybody know?

I read about a park with a breeding programm of European bisons on the island of Wolin, near Swinoujscie, and would like to go there. We'll be staying on the German part of Usedom and can't take the car into the Polish part,as the border is for pedestrians only.So unless this has changed with Poland being a Schengen state , we have to take public transportation to the bison park. Is there a bus taking tourists to the park? Or should we take a taxi? Again, thank you for any information.
