Amrum
Amrum is part of North Friesland and is especially known for its natural beauty. This includes a picturesque mixture of heath, small forests, meadows, a seemingly endless beach and an offshore sandbank with seals. The main town of the island community, which has 2279 inhabitants, bears the melodious name of Nebel. Special places offer the sea marks, including the Amrum lighthouse - the largest on the German North Sea coast. If you are interested in island history, you will find not only beautiful listed houses, but also historical evidence from the Viking Age. A special feature of the island are the so-called talking gravestones, which were elaborately engraved with quotes and Bible verses.
The ferry port on the island of Amrum offers connections to the island of Föhr as well as to the ferry port of Dagebüll on the German mainland. The routes Amrum - Föhr and Amrum - Dagebüll are offered here several times a day by the shipping company Adler-Schiffe.
Föhr
The North Frisian island of Föhr is considered a quiet neighbor of the islands of Amrum and Sylt, mainly because of the wild and comparatively windless weather. But also the number of visitors is much lower than for example on Sylt - here you can find especially much relaxation or walk on a guided hike to Amrum. Bronze Age gravestones and unusually pronounced vegetation for a North Sea island invite you to take long walks. Guests interested in culinary delights should try their hand at the local cheese, which enjoys a particularly good reputation. The island's five mills give it its characteristic panorama, while the Museum of West Coast Art is devoted to regional culture.
