User reviews

"What a marvel of nature. Endless stretches of fine, powdery sand as far as the eye can see. How delightful. It's not as if there are millions of other beaches just like it around the world. No, this one is truly unique. The sand is so fine, you'll be finding it in your shoes for weeks to come. How thrilling."

Lauter Carstensen

"If you have a fondness for tranquility, gusts of wind, sandy shores, and the vast ocean, then Amrum is the perfect place for you to unwind. This serene beach destination will provide you with the ideal environment to let go of your worries and simply bask in the beauty of nature."
