The very tip (where you can only continue on foot) is still cordoned off with tape (storm surge October 2023). Up to that point you can easily drive if it is not too crowded. There are 2 benches near the tape with a great view

Holnis (Danish: Holnæs) is a peninsula in the Baltic Sea that extends 6 km northeast of the city of Glücksburg into the Flensburg Fjord. Holnis was originally an island that was only connected to the mainland via a causeway in modern times. Parts of the peninsula are designated as a nature reserve: the small Noor, as well as the cliffs, the salt marsh, the northern beach and the areas on the dike from Schausende are protected. The Holnis Peninsula is home to an important seabird breeding colony. Holnis is the most northeastern point of mainland Germany.

Simply a nice and uncrowded corner despite the nearby campsite. The beach lounge offers food and drink and impresses with its friendly staff. You can also sit comfortably outside in the sandy area. Additional deck chairs are available on the beach free of charge. If the beach lounge isn't open, you can also get something from the campsite kiosk.

Hot dog from the kiosk, then on to the beach. Don't forget the long sand/headland in the fjord.
