💡 Tips

  • The Ghost Forest (Gespensterwald) is most atmospheric at dusk when the fading light filters through the wind-twisted trees.
  • Be sure to rent a Strandkorb (hooded beach chair) to shield yourself from the chilly Baltic Sea breeze.
  • The steep cliffs are beautiful, but always stay a safe distance from the edges due to active erosion.
  • A bicycle is the well-suited way to explore the flat, well-maintained coastal paths connecting to nearby Warnemünde.
  • If traveling with a dog, pay attention to local signage as strict regulations apply to designated dog beaches.
