The Hel Peninsula in Poland varies in width from 300 meters to over 3 kilometers and was formed entirely of sand, causing it to frequently become an island separated from the mainland during winter storms. Until the 17th century, the peninsula was actually a chain of islands that connected to form land only during the summer months and is now a popular tourist destination.
