A storm surge washover fan on the Lake Bukowo spit (kilometre 287.3 of the Polish Baltic coast) is described in detail. The in-depth examination of the fan relief and sedimentary facies allowed to identify two subfacies represented by the fan channel and the fan core. The importance of washover fan facies for the structure and development of sandy barriers as well as for shore sediment budget and shore protection is stressed.
