6. Gdynia Aquarium
A perfect place to visit on days when the weather forces you inside, the Gdynia Aquarium is stuffed with over 2,000 creatures, and pint-sized guests will delight in seeing everyone. Exhibits cover marine life from across the globe, like Australian spotted jellyfish and Amazon-dwelling giant arapaima, but also delve into the evolution of submersible technology through the decades.

7. Museum of IIWW
The best chance to make a small review of what you know about IIWW. A conflict that would go on to claim the lives of an estimated 55 million people is both a huge and complicated story to tell but this exhibition which tells the story with one eye always on the experience of Poland does in our opinion achieve that quite brilliantly. One tip for you - book a lot of time to see everything that is on the exhibition.

8. Pit Stop Electric Go-karts
Great fun even during the freezing cold winter. Take your friends and spend a brilliant time, racing and speeding. Once you get it into third gear the cart really moves and the track is challenging enough to make it good fun.
