The North Sea Island Foehr
"Frisian Caribbean"
Miles of white sandy beaches, beautiful green nature and a pleasant, favored, by the Gulf Stream, maritime climate: The North Sea island Foehr is a vacation paradise for people of all ages - in the vernacular, it is affectionately called the "Frisian Caribbean"
The beauty and diverse natural landscape on Foehr are certainly one reason why there are so many loyal vacation guests here. Another reason is the fact that Foehr has. after Freiburg, the most hours of sunshine. In addition, the island impresses with its authentic and friendly people. Whoever comes to Foehr, returns again and again - preferably every year.
The island of Foehr is actually surrounded on all sides by the Wadden Sea. Since 2009, the Wadden Sea, as a World Natural Heritage, is officially under the protection of UNESCO - and with good reason: The Wadden Sea is unique and diverse in the world. Every six hours, low tide and high tide alternate and almost magically change the landscape at that moment.
More than 10,000 animal and plant species live in this unique habitat. Only 250 of them are only found in the Wadden Sea and nowhere else in the world. Sea scorpions and lugworms are just as much to admire as mussels and beach crabs.
