Further tips:

Island camp Fehmarn, Schleswig-Holstein

With around 2000 hours of sunshine a year, Fehmarn is one of the sunniest regions Germany has to offer. The 5-star campsite right on the fine sandy Baltic Sea beach is the perfect place to relax. Water sports enthusiasts can take advantage of the favourable wind conditions on Germany's third-largest island for sailing and surfing. Those who prefer to stay on land: Numerous cycle paths stretch across the entire island and invite you to go on long tours.

Seecamping Mentl, Carinthia, Austria

Between the majestic peaks of the Gerlitzen and the gentle hills of the Ossiacher Tauern lies the picturesque Ossiacher See in the heart of Carinthia. The charming Seecamping Mentl, run by the hospitable Lauritsch family, welcomes its guests. The crystal-clear water and mild climate are ideal for swimming, diving and water sports. Kayaks and canoes allow you to explore the lake, while hire stations also have water skis and wakeboards available for the more adventurous. For quieter moments, stand-up paddleboards, pedal boats and cosy air mattresses are available to experience the beauty of Lake Ossiach to the full.

Beach Camping Waging am See, Bavaria

With eight different pitch categories ranging from standard to luxury, there is something for every taste. Wood lodges, sleeping barrels and holiday flats await guests without camping equipment. Action enthusiasts can quickly learn to stand up on a board at a nearby windsurfing school. The whole family can discover hidden bays on a pedalo and enjoy the tranquillity in the middle of Lake Waginger See.

Camping am See Allensbach, Baden-Württemberg

Camping am See Allensbach is located directly on Lake Constance with charming fisherman's huts for overnight stays and cyclists' rooms for holidaymakers travelling along the Lake Constance cycle path. In the evening, you can retire to the lakeside restaurant for a campfire by the water with guitar music. Those who prefer a little more action are in luck: the Treibgut water sports school right next to the campsite offers windsurfing courses as well as SUPs, wingfoils and pedal boats for hire.

Campsite Rantum, Sylt, Schleswig-Holstein

The Rantum campsite on Sylt offers idyllic camping between the Wadden Sea and the North Sea. With more than 200 pitches, it is one of the largest on the island. The rough North Sea is a 500 metre walk through the dunes and offers ideal conditions for water sports such as surfing, kitesurfing and catamaran sailing. When the sea is calm, stand-up paddlers enjoy the relaxed atmosphere and often glide towards the sunset. Right next to the site, the meerspass water sports school offers SUP courses on the mudflats, and you can also hire boards there!
