Poland's Betrothal with the Sea was a ceremony symbolizing restored Polish access to the sea.

It was first performed on February 10 , 1920 , by General Józef Haller at Puck (Putzig), on Poland's Baltic Sea coast.

On the second occasion, it was performed by the Polish Army in 1945 in newly-captured Kołobrzeg (Kolberg).

In the ceremony, a military flag was dipped into the sea, while the commander cast in a ring. The speeches on these occasions emphasized the importance of access to the sea for the economic development of Poland.
