Arche Noah Restaurant, St. Peter-Ording

Highlight • Restaurant

The beach image of SPO is characterized by the stilt houses, which are up to 7 m high and have long since become the town's landmark. For more than 100 years, the wooden huts on stilts made of larch wood have contributed significantly to the design of St. Peter-Ording's beach image. There are pile dwellings close to the coast on every beach in Ording, Bad, Dorf and Böhl. In 1911 the first pile dwelling, the “Giftbude”, opened its doors in SPO. In a typical North German manner, the name indicates that after jumping into the cool water, it's "wat geev", because the main task of the wooden buildings back then was to ensure the well-being of beach visitors. In order to offer water lovers more comfort and safety on the beach, additional stilt houses for lifeguards and changing rooms were built.

Today there are five pile-dwelling restaurants on the long beach of SPO, which prepare one or two culinary delights for guests and locals. Here you can have a delicious meal with the best view of the North Sea and enjoy the sun on the terraces when the weather is good. The pile dwellings were also awarded the label “simple cultural property”.

St. Peter-Ording Pier

Highlight • Bridge

The pier is insane – probably the longest pier on the North Sea – at least I don't know of any longer ones. The surrounding landscape is a dream. It's even better when you reach the end of the pier and can bury your feet in the fine sand. That's when the real holiday feeling kicks in. Highly recommended.

Here you have a great view of the dune landscape. If you look closely you can see many animals.

St. Peter-Ording — Bad Center

Highlight • Settlement

In the “Bad” district, the actual center of St.Peter-Ording, numerous shops and street cafes invite you to stroll and linger. Events take place regularly on the newly designed spa promenade. The pier attracts with an open-air stage. There are adventure, play and relaxation areas for children along the promenade.
The impressive leisure and adventure pool “Dünentherme” offers an extensive wellness area and an attached health center.


It goes one kilometer over the pier to the North Sea beach in the Bad district. Alternatively, the beach can be reached on foot from Ording. Parking is possible in one of the parking spaces directly in the Bad-Zentrum, from there you can continue on foot. Barrier-free access to the beach is possible via the pier.
The pile-dwelling restaurant Arche Noah is located directly on the beach, with a connection to the pier and is also easily accessible for wheelchair users.
The beach is guarded and there are plenty of beach chairs in the sand or on one of the platforms


The regatta course for sand yachts and kite buggies begins south of the Bad bathing area. Regatta competitions can be watched here regularly throughout the year. There's plenty of space here. In the direction of the village it is the paradise of beach sailors - in the direction of Ording it is the kite buggy driver's paradise. The conditions are unique.

Went to the North Sea for a few days 😊🌞, so I had to use my holiday bike again 😊.

Today we used the surprising "sun window" to visit the beach of "Bad", one of the four districts of St. Peter-Ording.
In "Bad" many cafés, restaurants and small shops invite you to stroll. But if you then go in the direction of the beach, you get to the 1095 meter long "Seebrücke", which leads you in the direction of the …
