Binnensee Beach, Heiligenhafen

Heiligenhafen is always worth a trip. So varied and lively, great hiking trail to Graswarder, the harbor with all its boats and great localities.

NABU birdwatching tower Graswarder

Highlight • Natural Monument

The roughly 230 hectare natural idyll is characterized by the Baltic Sea beach, the up to two meter high beach ridges with dunes and the lush salt marsh, on which the most sensitive and endangered plants grow.

In addition to the breeding birds, around 180 other bird species head for the Graswarder in the cold season. Visitors to the information center can take a tour of the incubated egg of a common gull or even hold a chick in their hands. From the observation tower, visitors have a fantastic view of one of the most beautiful spit coasts in Schleswig-Holstein. Heiligenhafen is a good example of a successful cooperation between tourism and nature conservation.

From March to May, more than 40 bird species breed in the nature reserve: greylag geese, shelducks, oystercatchers, avocets and common gulls (around 2,000 pairs in 1993) as well as skylarks and barn swallows. Thousands of sandpipers and Nordic duck species also rest and overwinter here.

Graswarder Beach and Houses

Highlight (Segment) • Beach

Always something to find on the beach! If you come from the beach without stones etc., you weren't really there!

All-Weather Lounge on the Heiligenhafen Pier

Highlight • Structure

Yeah ... here it can take it! Whether it storms or snows or rains, here you are well protected from the rigors of the weather, which should not be very rare here in the north. This is a luxury lounge, you feel like you are in the middle of the sea. The view is terrific and yet you always have fresh air around your nose.

October 1, 2023,Heiligenhafen oder wenn Zeit keine Rolle spielt

Simply wasting time without a plan - that's how our visit to Heiligenhafen turned out today. We're on vacation. Checked out everything on the beach and on the pier, strolled through the pedestrian zone and pressed our noses to the shop windows, dined on very tasty mussels and then strolled through a nature reserve. Afterwards, we were completely fed up …

From Heiligenhafen, you can hike to the Graswarder peninsula. A popular destination for nature and photography enthusiasts, as it offers not only architecturally interesting villas but also a refuge for many bird species!

Since we still had to get 🥖 anyway, the brilliant weather (☀️but 🥶) offered a detour to the Graswarder. The nature reserve with 🦅🕊️🦆 and its 🔴🔵🟡🟠 houses is always worth a detour. Unfortunately, the lookout tower is closed due to Corona 🤷🏼 (it was still open in the fall).

This weekend without 🚴🏽 ♂️ on the road. Went to Heiligenhafen on the Baltic Sea for a few days and the weather cooperated 😊. We'll get a taste of the sea air here, and then we'll go back. But we really enjoy the time 😊
