Stepnica lies on the Szczecin Lagoon and its sights revolve around water. They include a harbour, a marina, a rare church and a reserve, so a visit covers a stroll by the canal and a trip into nature.
Port Stepnica is a small seaport on the eastern shore of Stepnica Bay, with a fishing basin, cargo quays and a yacht marina. It was formally established in 1963. The marina on the Mill Canal at Rybacka 7 lies in the northern part of town, about 500 m from the centre, in a sheltered canal with benches, lamps and a paved road. It belongs to the West Pomeranian Sailing Trail. The ports of the Polish shore of the lagoon are covered in the article on Trzebież, Stepnica and Nowe Warpno.
The Church of St Hyacinth of 1741 was built on a Greek cross plan, which is a great rarity in West Pomerania, using half-timbering, with a Baroque pulpit altar and wooden galleries. The Czarnocin reserve covers 420.14 ha on the Szczecin Lagoon, protects a transitional bog and an alder carr, and the green Stepnica Trail runs through it. Entry is free.
