Easy panoramic views, short hiking, kayaking, cruises, spas on Poland

Hi all,

I'm new here. I'm planning app. 3 weeks trip to Poland now in July - August. Plan is to spend most of the time probably in Baltic sea coast and then south on the mountains, but maybe some destinations in between as well. 2 Adults travelling with normal rental car (to have flexibility on timings).

I'm looking help to e.g. find links to information websites (English) or any information in this forum (comments, locations names, links, maps, etc) for the following categories:

a) best easy access panoramic views, could be e.g. high viewing platform, lighthouse, rooftop restaurant, cliff or hill top, view on the road side rest place etc. Or tips how to search these on web / google maps? Any panoramic view that could be reach without major effort and time investigation. I have noticed some places, many of those also take effort to hike e.g. 15km. I know 1-2 Baltic sea lighthouses and app. 2 Tatra area cable cars.

b) where you could rent kayaks independently e.g. for 1 hour or less (arrive & go) to have a easy activity on river or lake? Not interested on organized and timed group tours.

c) any known short cruises or boat tours, e.g. max 1 hour or less?

d) any hiking tips, where to find nice hiking with small effort, e.g. max 10km with no big vertical elevation via foot?

e) any recommendations for spas, e.g. that have also outdoor heated pools, maybe view to somewhere nice, like mountains, city skyline or ocean?

All tips and help are appreciated. Many thanks.
