A small beach bar nestled between dunes with a wonderful view of the beautiful North Sea. Delicious food and drinks are served indoors in bad weather, or on the large terrace or directly on the beach.

The small barrel sauna can be used by up to 4 people. It is equipped with a large panoramic window. The window is mirrored on the outside so that no one can see inside. The sauna has a wood-burning stove from Huum, which is surrounded by stones. A window through which the flames can be seen is also a must for the cozy atmosphere.
