Beaches

In front of you, the colourful beach life, the open North Sea and sunbathing seals on the seal bank – behind you, the bustling activity of the North Sea island. A unique combination: The long sandbank of the Borkumreefs keep the surf at bay and offer an ideal water sports area – and all this in the immediate vicinity of the island town. Nordbad the best of both worlds for this special Borkum-Flair. Here, between swims, you can enjoy a latte macchiato with live music or a snack at one of the typical milk stalls – at moderate mainland prices.

So there are reasons why all BorkumGuests love to stroll: families with children, singles, couples, and even "goldies." The promenade of the largest East Frisian island is simply a natural attraction for everyone. There is the promenade hall, the pavilion with daily Music & Sea-spa music, the cafes and bars, from whose terraces you can experience the most beautiful sunsets. Perhaps you would like a sundowner with it? Incidentally, there is also a specially designated beach igloo area nearby, a dog beach, numerous beach tent and beach chair rentals and seasonal Beach animation. DLRG Borkum monitors a section of the beach and has a mobile rescue station on site.

Since Borkum not a rigid island form, but rather a constantly changing area influenced by wind, sea and currents, it can also be in the area of NordbadMovements may occur. For further information, see the brochure “Gone with the Wind” and the April 2018 Press Release the North Sea spa Borkum GmbH.

When in the evening on top of the dune above the Südbad the red and white striped electric Leuchtturm When the sun is setting, and ocean liners set sail from the mouth of the Ems, it sometimes seems almost unreal. With so much North Sea romance, the only thing missing is Captain Bluebear.

And the DLRG-monitored Südbad everything you need for a successful beach holiday. Here you can rent beach chairs and tents, there are milk stalls where crab sandwiches, herring, baked potatoes, red fruit compote and all the other culinary BorkumClassics are served. And because our four-legged friends also love the sand and water, there's also a designated dog beach here. Restrooms, car parking, and bicycle storage are just a few meters away.

Important to know: For nature conservation reasons, the city Borkum and the North Sea spa Borkum GmbH has been prohibited by the Waterways and Shipping Authority from clearing the Krischan-Wolters-Pad of sand. As a result, the path is no longer accessible and is also impassable by bicycle. An alternative path solution, using loop boards, has been laid across the beach from Heimliche Liebe to the black revetment until a permanent solution is found that meets all permit requirements.

A beach where you can walk around as God created you. And all around you would be the sound of the sea, dunes, and vastness. What sounds like a utopia is, on the North Sea island, Borkum possible. Nudists are happy to let all their clothes fall off. They can't feel more free anywhere.

This beach is also guarded by the DLRG. A dip in the cool waters of the North Sea will make your heart beat faster. When was the last time you felt so vital?
