Magnificent views from up here on the cliffs. Best with a northerly wind: incredibly beautiful waves, but dress warmly!

You can drive or park almost right up to the beach, but that comes at a price. Day ticket €12. But then nothing stands in the way of a day at the beach.

The beach in front of Warnemünde stretches for several kilometers, so everyone can find something they like. The formula is quite simple: the closer you get to Warnemünde, the more hustle and bustle and restaurants you'll find; the further away from Warnemünde, the quieter and more quaint it becomes. Further away, you'll also find a nudist beach and a dog beach.
