The reservoir is used by water sports enthusiasts who do not want to comply with the requirements of the tide-dependent 'part-time' sea...

In principle, every dike path is a great way to cycle. The **beach in Badestrand Deichhausen is located a little south of Büsum and is significantly quieter and less touristy compared to the Familienlagune. You pass beach chairs, a green beach, and cozy seating areas – it is a classic North Sea promenade.

The North Sea dike is so beautiful because it offers unique relaxation through the combination of vast landscape, the UNESCO World Natural Heritage Wadden Sea, and healthy, salty sea air. It is an ideal place to switch off, enjoy nature, experience wide views, and spend a relaxed time. Cycling and hiking on both sides of the dikes is great

This is not the Meldorfer See. This is the "Miele Reservoir".
