Erlebnisse in Norderney

Wide sandy beaches, fresh North Sea air and calm island vibes, Norderney has all three in droves. Nestled in Germany’s East Frisian Islands, Norderney is known for its sand-covered coasts and laidback atmosphere. The town itself has a history as a spa resort, with the Badehaus still offering seawater pools and saunas today. Cycling and walking are the best ways to get around, with trails through dunes and along the shore. And the local food leans on fresh and simple staples, from shrimp rolls to hearty Frisian fish dishes. Top three things to do in Norderney: 1. Take a stroll along the island’s beaches Norderney’s coastline stretches for miles and is the island’s main draw. Swim in summer or just enjoy the sea air year-round. The low tide reveals the mudflats, part of the UNESCO-listed Wadden Sea. 2. Visit the Badehaus Spa This modern thalasso spa – thalasso means it uses seawater in its facilities – continues the island’s wellness tradition with pools, saunas and treatments. It’s an ideal spot for a relaxing stop after time outdoors. 3. Explore the mudflats Guided walks across the tidal flats show off the unique wildlife that lives in this part of the Wadden Sea. It’s a chance to learn how crabs, mussels and birds adapt to the changing tides.
