Hiking
The beaches of Prerow and Zingst are both among the most beautiful on the Baltic Sea, but differ slightly in character.
Prerow
Very wide, bright, fine sandy beach.
Quieter and closer to nature.
Direct access to the famous Darßer Weststrand and the Darßwald forest.
New 720 m long pier as a highlight.
Zingst
Also fine, white sandy beach.
More tourist infrastructure with a promenade, restaurants, beach bars, and the pier.
Many designated areas for families, water sports, dogs, and naturism.
Shallowly sloping water – ideal for swimming.
