Pomeranian Voivodeship (Polish: Województwo pomorskie) is a province situated at the Baltic Sea coast in the north of Poland.
The people of Pomeranian Voivodeship speak standard Polish. Kashubes speak Kashubian too. Due to its history, many inhabitants have at least cursory knowledge of German. As in the entirety of Poland, English knowledge is on the rise, particularly among the younger generations. The region sees a fair amount of tourism and thus many service-sector employees have a reasonable fluency in English. Other languages that can be spoken by locals include Finnish, Norwegian, Russian, and Ukrainian.
The region's airport is the Gdańsk Lech Wałęsa Airport (IATA: GDN) in Gdańsk. One of the busiest airports in Poland, it is served by many flights to other countries in Europe, also connecting to intercontinental flights.
Sopot: A beautiful town. One of the "tri-cities" (Gdańsk, Sopot, Gdynia). Great place to come in the summertime but there are a lot of tourists. Attracts people from all over Poland as well as neighboring countries.
