Greetsiel

For raisin picker It does not always have to be herring - "Poppinga's Old Bakery" is a sweet alternative. In the tearoom with antique wall tiles at the port of Greetsiel it smells of vanilla and strawberry. There is raisin bread for a special tea ceremony. With reservation.

Mussels for tea Certain creatures among the more than 1000 snails and shells in the Shell Museum have never been seen before (until October 23, Tue to Thu 14.30-18 clock). If you've heard enough stories about the yellowbirds, you should stay a while in the pretty north, the oldest city in East Frisia. At the Ostfriesische Teemuseum you can first of all fortify yourself with a cup of Frisian mixture. And then z. For example, see Chinese porcelain from sunken ships (Tue-Sun 10 am-5pm).

Norderney

Design with worm engraving Once upon a time there was a shed. Before that, Marc and Jens Brune played in the summer holidays with grandma. When they grew up, the two brothers became architects. They let the worm-eaten planks of the shed freeze dry and turned them into room elements in their new design hotel "Seesteg", directly on the Norderneyer promenade. From the roof terrace with pool you look far over the North Sea - vacation for the soul. In addition, the house has an excellent restaurant.

Norderney

Round and good Outside, the "Milchbar" is a spherical art deco bathhouse, inside a modern lounge - clear, pure, bright. At the buffet there are daily changing dishes and delicious cake for 2.50 euros. And in the background is quiet music (daily 10 am to 11 pm). Nice alternative, about a kilometer further east on the beach: the "surf cafe". There you can have a picnic basket for 30 euros (daily from 9 clock) - and then off to the sandy beach of Norderney.

Langeoog

Colorful wallpaper change The walls of the Hotel Garni "Retro Design" with their colorful retro patterns are an optical trip into the 70s.

Bremerhaven

Gateway to the fish world The largest city on the German North Sea coast is in a permanent plastic surgery - and is worth a long tour of the old fishing port and the new "Havenwelten". Wherever they arise, the hotel "Sail City" towers over everything in the form of a giant sail. The main attraction is still the fish. You get it smoked, for example, in the oldest fish smokehouse "Franke", for eating or taking away. Fresh he comes at "hostage fish 2000" on the table.

Cuxhaven

Good luck The stories that hide behind the exhibits of the Wreck Museum Cuxhaven are scary-exciting. The old roast hood, the bottle with pickled gooseberries, the stuffed bale: all were traveling on ships whose journey ended at the bottom of a sea or river, all the silt has preserved.
