Travel guide for German regions

For centuries, sand was St. Peter-Ording's curse, a reason to leave. Today it is a reason to come. A wide beach, exposed to wind and tides, crisscrossed by gullies, everything about it rough and stormy and magnificent. In short: St. Peter-Ording is a classic.

It is all the more astonishing that the Eiderstedt peninsula, off whose western tip lies the famous sandbank, has remained almost an insider tip to this day. The wide and open area between Friedrichstadt and St. Peter-Ording is something like the epitome of the German North Sea coast.
