Poniatówka is a sandy city beach on the east bank of the Vistula, beneath Poniatowski Bridge and beside the National Stadium. Come to sunbathe, watch the sunset or meet friends for a barbecue; swimming is not recommended because the river is unsafe for it. In summer, you can use free sunbeds and wicker beach baskets, play volleyball or table tennis, and work out at the outdoor gym. The beach also has playground facilities for families, though it is worth checking the sand for litter or broken glass.
