Pro tips for getting around

Buy tickets via app

Get PKM/SKM tickets via the SkyCash or moBilet app before boarding - it's cheaper than buying on the train and you skip the queue.

Gdynia Redłowo station

The SKM station is a 5-minute walk from PPNT - look for the footbridge over the tracks and follow signs toward Al. Zwycięstwa.

Bolt beats Uber

Bolt is typically 10–20% cheaper than Uber in the Tricity area. Both accept international credit and debit cards.

Skip rush hour

If driving or taking a taxi, avoid 7:30–9:00 and 15:30–17:30 on Al. Zwycięstwa - the main artery gets congested during commute hours.

EU roaming works

Your EU SIM card works in Poland at no extra cost. Non-EU visitors can grab a prepaid SIM at the airport for ~25 PLN with data included.

Card payments everywhere

Contactless payments are accepted almost everywhere in Poland - restaurants, shops, taxis, even market stalls. Apple Pay and Google Pay work widely.

November in Gdynia

What to wear

November on the Baltic coast means temperatures between 0°C and 8°C, with wind, rain, and occasional frost. Gdynia's coastal location makes wind chill a factor. Dress warmly and in layers - especially if you're joining our boat trip networking activity!

Layered Clothing

Thermal base layer, wool or fleece mid-layer, and a warm outer jacket. Conference rooms are heated but transitions between indoor and outdoor can be jarring.

Waterproof Coat

A windproof, waterproof outer layer is essential. Baltic wind and rain are common in November. If joining the boat trip, this is mandatory.

Waterproof Shoes

Comfortable, waterproof footwear is a must. You'll be walking between sessions and possibly exploring the city. Non-slip soles recommended.

Hat, Scarf & Gloves

Baltic wind can be biting. A warm hat, scarf, and gloves are highly recommended, especially for outdoor activities and the boat trip.

Compact Umbrella

A small, foldable umbrella can be handy. November sees regular rainfall in the Tricity area.

Boat Trip Alert

Our signature boat trip takes place on the Baltic in November.Warm, layered clothing and waterproof outerwear are mandatory. Life jackets and safety gear provided.
