Lippe Harbour

Highlight • Rest Area

The only marina in the Hohwacht bay. Only shortly before Kiel or in Heiligenhafen there are sailboats again. Remarkable.

The 370-square-meter sea platform is made of oak planks; the supporting steel structure is suspended from a pylon set at a depth of ten meters. With its blue paint finish, the steel tube is the platform's unmistakable central element: when viewed from above, it resembles the shape of the flatfish, the "flounder."

The steel girders of the substructure, which extend fan-like into the Baltic Sea, are suspended from the structure's pylon by a cable structure. This makes the platform appear to "float" three meters above the water. From the beach at the DLRG tower, a three-meter-wide walkway leads directly to the flounder. This splits again shortly before the platform and runs past the pylon on both sides.

The flounder is easily accessible by wheelchair, stroller, etc.

I had actually planned to take the harbor ferries again and zoom through the harbor city on a scooter. But the weather simply drew me to my favorite bay on the Baltic Sea 🤗

After we were infected by the beach virus at the lecture in Sønderborg/Denmark 😁, we now want to explore the Baltic Sea coast of Schleswig-Holstein. We don't drive to the overcrowded Bay of Lübeck, but to Hohwacht. We pay a daily fee of 3€ for the parking lot. Very idyllic coastal town with a beautiful beach and promenade. The "Coast …
