North Sea, Baltic Sea
The Frisian Islands fringe Germany's North Sea coast like a string of pearls. In between are the salt flats which offer a fantastic pageant twice daily: the ebb and flow of the tide. High dikes protect the coastline's fertile marshland, which generations have wrested from the ravages of the sea. Beautiful nature and national parks, both on water and on land, provide the optimal habitat for a variety of wildlife, especially for migratory birds. The region is a paradise for those seeking relaxation and exercise in invigorating nature, offering above all riding, cycling, walking and watersports on the many inland lakes.
The Baltic Sea boasts an especially varied coast with its flat sandy beaches, breathtaking cliffs, romantic bays, typical coves and a range of resorts catering to all tastes. The region away from the coast is also worth an extended visit with the rolling slopes of Holsteinische Schweiz, the impressive Segeberg chalk hill, brickwork architecture and numerous museums. For the sports or culture-oriented, there is enough to do and discover here.
