Poland, Gdynia, maritime museum

Divers in Gdynia

Gdynia is a short and cheap journey away from Gdansk by train. The train goes from Glowny station from where one can also travel to Sopot, which we would also recommend (not as a diving history destination though). The museum in Gdynia is at the sea and it features diving amongst other things. Find some pictures below.

Gdynia boasts a new naval museum and there areinteresting ships at the pier.
What happened?
Natural posture is very difficult to achieve without an actual person inside.
A diving dress of a left handed diver.
The museum is, as so often is the case, spacious to the brink of feeing empty.
This affords a good view on items on display but impacts the atmosphere.
Showcased gear can present a challenge to a photographer. Unfortunately, a polarising filter was not available and reflections must remain. This diver was right handed. We assume that those who built the display were aware of this fact.
