Great beach, quiet atmosphere, no crowds or tourists like on many other Baltic Sea beaches. Shallow water and fine sand. Drinks are available at the kiosk and food can be found at the campsite in the Oasis. If you want a beach, this is the right place.

Beautiful beach with (thankfully!) a traffic-calmed country road and a good bike path.

A well-maintained beach with a sweeping view of the water. Food and drink are available at the mini-golf course or at the campsite (which also houses the Oase restaurant). The "Zierow Strand" bus stop is approximately 200 meters from the beach. A bus to Wismar departs every hour (30 minutes to the central bus station).

The Wallensteingraben, which connects Lake Schwerin with the Bay of Wismar, flows through the water from south to north. The banks are mainly covered with dense woodland. The Bad Kleinen-Wismar railway line runs along the west bank. Directly accessible areas are on the east bank. There are isolated reed beds on the south and north banks.
