Sankt Peter-Ording is located on the North Sea coast of Schleswig-Holstein, directly on the Wadden Sea UNESCO World Heritage Site. The municipality is particularly known for its twelve kilometers long sandy beach and the many beach activities, such as kite surfing and sand yachting. The town offers an extensive range of wellness and spa offers as well as many opportunities for bike rides and (mudflats) hikes in the surrounding nature. The stilt houses on the beach, which are typical of the region, are particularly worth seeing. Sankt Peter-Ording is a popular destination for families, but also for active holidaymakers and those seeking relaxation.
