The seafront at Zoppot, Free City of Danzig.

The seafront at Zoppot, Free City of Danzig. Zoppot was part of the Free City of Danzig from 1920 to 1939. The photographer is looking north-west-by-north from the beach near the pier showing a large number of basket seats scattered on the beach and each one has a low embankment round it. Many of the seats are occupied and are all numbered with a BZ letter prefix. People are in the water and a leisure complex and two piers are in the background. The coast is backed by a tree-lined strip of land.
