In the summer months, I'm not even allowed to go there pushing my bike. The bikers who remained seated on the saddle despite being asked to push must have caused this. I was allowed through as an exception with my folded Brompton, after arguing that this bike, when folded, is even classified as hand luggage on the DB, following the intervention of the ADFC.... 😁

The large letters in a trendy rust look (Corten steel) are an extremely popular photo motif for holidaymakers, especially at sunset. It stands at the transition of the lagoon island.

I think it's good that cyclists don't get their way here. I'm also a cyclist and can dismount when required... Not everyone manages that, a pity...

Whichever section of the beach you choose, you can easily reach the top of the dike and the mudflats via the stairs and ramps. Once you have reached the dike, you will find all important information about weather, tides, and event tips on the electronic displays at the information huts.
