Attractions in and around Norderney
Norderney: Thalasso-Insel mit städtischem Flair
Norderney is the most urban of the East Frisian Islands: a proper island town with a spa theatre, the Conversationshaus and the bade:haus, Europe's largest thalasso bathhouse. All around: 14 kilometres of beach and the silence of the UNESCO-listed Wadden Sea.
The quarters range from the classic island hotel like the Hotel König to charming guesthouses – the Haus Seeschwalbe and the Haus Marlies stand for this personal category. Holiday flats like Louise am Meer and NeyMeer are the first choice for those who want to live the island rhythm on their own; you can even stay above the time-honoured Jacobs bakery.
Cars barely matter on Norderney: the bicycle is the island vehicle and the ferry from Norddeich runs hourly. Those reserving directly with the host book commission-free – and get the decisive insider tip on which stretch between Weststrand and Oase the beach chairs catch the sun first.
