The viewpoint is very good. The lighthouse is one of the most beautiful, even though it is getting on in years.

Very good cycle path with ferry connection. We use it on our Usedom and Rügen circumnavigation.

When the water surfaces of the Bodden freeze over in harsh winters, the last open water spots remain at this approximately 350 m wide narrow passage due to the current to and from the Großer Jasmunder Bodden, offering refuge to many water birds. The two old ferry piers on the north and south shores have been preserved and are listed as historical monuments.

From here, ferries and water taxis operate year-round to Vitte, Kloster, and Neuendorf on Hiddensee. In addition to ferry services, the harbor has a modern marina with numerous berths and offers a beautiful view of the Bodden and the island of Hiddensee. It is advisable to book ferry tickets online in advance to avoid potential crowds (especially in summer). Please note that there are no parking facilities directly at the harbor; the large parking lot at the entrance to the town should be used instead. We paid 6 Euros for our bus (Sprinter) for the whole day (as of July 2026).
