At which beach is Coastal Rowing championship in Poland ?  

We have not found this information and asked our artificial buddy. This is what our artificial robot tells us? “The specific beach hosting the European Coastal Rowing Championship in Gdańsk is not explicitly mentioned in the official event details or on websites of the organizing bodies like European Rowing or World Rowing

This is likely because the races occur on open water or a lake, and the specific starting and finishing points might vary depending on weather conditions and course logistics.

However, considering the event description mentions the venue will be open for training starting Tuesday, June 18th, 2024, it’s highly probable the races will be held near Jelitkowo Beach, which boasts a designated rowing course and has hosted past coastal rowing events in Gdańsk.” This is also the location of some of the hotel recommendations.
