The promenade is not a spectacular nature trail, but rather classic coastal leisure: ideal for strolling, cycling, views, breaks by the sea, and light activity – perfect to combine with a mudflat hike or other dike paths if you want more nature.

The lettering is at the front at the transition to the lagoon island. Had to go over there.

Open view over the Wadden Sea in the National Park Schleswig-Holstein Wadden Sea Change of water, mudflats, sky – constantly different light moods Dyke line as a panoramic path (perfect for cycling) Wind, expanse, seagulls – this typical North Sea feeling that you don't have in town Depending on the tide, a completely different landscape (water surface vs. endless mudflat area)

The Büsum harbor entrance was first marked in 1878 by lighting a nearly 3-meter-long wooden pole with a kerosene lamp near the current main entrance to the beach. At the beginning of the 20th century, the era of electrification began in Büsum. The engineer Max Gehre, a spa guest from Düsseldorf, enabled the first electric street and building lighting in 1900 through a pioneering achievement by building a wind turbine.

The city center of Büsum begins right at the fishing harbor, with many great retail shops, cafes, bistros and restaurants.
