Many envy the Płock inhabitants because of the beach and the lido in the town center - you can spend time actively (rent a canoe, a pedal boat, play volleyball, waterslide for children). Resident of Płock like running – the town is home to several street marathons in different seasons and the one with the longest tradition is the Tumski Run, but the highest number of competitors gather Semi-Marathon of Two Bridges in September.
