Norddorfer Strand auf Amrum

The Kniepsand naturally formed on the west side of Amrum and is not part of the original Ice Age island core. On the southern part of the island, it stretches over an impressive 1.5 kilometers, while in the north it narrows to about 100 meters wide. This expansive beach offers plenty of space for those seeking peace and quiet and is also a paradise for birdwatchers and nature lovers who can enjoy the abundant birdlife. Norddorfer Strand also has a nudist area, a dog beach, a surfing school, sailing opportunities, numerous areas for ball games, and many friendly beach chair rental vendors who make sure you feel completely comfortable.

Family Beach

Norddorfer Strand offers many highlights for the whole family. The offshore sandbanks and gently sloping water provide pleasant water temperatures and allow safe swimming, even for children. Here you can build sandcastles with your little ones, play various beach games, or simply relax in one of the many beach chairs or a cozy beach tent.

Additional entertainment is provided by the children’s activities program, where the little ones can get creative. At the beach access, you’ll find a restaurant inviting you to linger – enjoy the sunset here with delicious food or a refreshing ice cream sundae. An unforgettable experience for the whole family!

Dog Beach

Dogs are warmly welcomed at the beach and can really let off steam in their own area. Here the four-legged friends can play to their heart’s content and make new friends. The leash requirement also applies here, so both dog and owner can feel comfortable.

Activity Beach

For the sporty, the beach offers a variety of options. You can surf, kite, or sail – every water sports enthusiast will find something here. There is also a marked beach volleyball and beach soccer field where you can compete with friends or fellow vacationers. For extra fun, there is a trampoline set up right next to the surfing school – ideal for everyone who wants to really let loose after an active day!
