One of the most popular spots in Giżycko is the Municipal Beach on Lake Niegocin. Although the main bathing area does not allow dogs, nearby you will find spaces where your pup can cool off. However, remember that cleanliness is essential. Always clean up after your dog, and keep them on a leash in crowded areas so they do not cause discomfort or pose a threat to other visitors and their dogs.
It is also worth paying attention to local regulations. Giżycko has clearly defined rules for the use of bathing areas – dogs are not allowed in areas designated for swimmers. When going to the water, look for marked places for walks and swimming for animals.

Dog-friendly beaches by the lakes
Masuria is a paradise not only for sailing enthusiasts but also for dog owners. Several beaches and recreational areas offer spaces where animals are always welcome.
Near Giżycko, it is worth visiting smaller, less crowded beaches by lakes like Tajty or Kisajno. These are places without crowds where your dog can run and swim freely. For dogs who love water, this is genuine fun!
Some beaches offer amenities for dog owners, such as special waste bins, water bowls, or information boards with usage rules. These are great examples of dog-friendly places. However, always have a leash handy because even on "dog beaches," rules apply to ensure all animals present feel equally safe. As an owner, you are fully responsible for your dog. Always remember that.
