The 42 kilometres of fabulous fine white sandy beach lines the blue of the Baltic Sea from Peenemünde to Ahlbeck. That means there’s enough space for everyone, no matter if you like it busy or quiet.
Water Quality
42 km of sandy beaches give you untarnished swimming fun from the northern tip of the island to the “3 Imperial Spas” ("3 Kaiserbäder"). The beach is broad and the water quality is first-class. The beaches on the Island of Usedom were certified by Mecklenburg-Vorpommern’s Ministry of Social Affairs and Health with the best possible certification.
Walk out onto the sea and see the coastline as if from a ship, without getting seasick – that’s possible from Usedom’s piers. The piers are the island’s trademark. At 508 metres, Heringsdorf pier is the longest in continental Europe.
The Baltic is a far-stretching area with a length of more than 350 km and disposes of some marvellous sandy beaches. Refreshing breezes, a healthy cooling-down in the sea and long walks along the beach are the trademarks of the Baltic Sea. We sail from the islands of Usedom and Rügen.
There's summer all year round in Zinnowitz's Bernsteintherme: the swimming pool and sauna landscape is spacious and colourful, influenced by the nature that mirrors the fascination of amber. Jump-in and enjoy!
