Parking at the ferry terminal

The island of Langeoog
Langeoog, one of the East Frisian islands, impresses with its unique atmosphere and untouched nature. The 14-kilometer long, untouched sandy beach stretches into infinity without groynes or breakwaters and offers even more expanse at low tide. The small, car-free town center, surrounded by high dunes, conveys a quiet, relaxed atmosphere where bicycles and horse-drawn carriages dominate.
Langeoog lies in the middle of the East Frisian Islands and has a mild, balanced climate thanks to the influence of the Gulf Stream. The island is long and narrow - about 20 kilometers long, but only one kilometer wide at its narrowest point. Only 5% of the island is built on, the rest is nature. The dunes, which are up to 20 meters high, protect the island, so there is no need for coastal protection structures.
Langeoog is a paradise for nature lovers. In addition to the beach, the Wadden Sea UNESCO World Heritage Site impresses with its unique flora and fauna. Mudflat walks are a special experience, but only with a mudflat guide.
The island is also a recognized thalassotherapy spa that uses seawater and salty air for therapies. The spa and wellness center has a seawater wave pool, saunas and a wide range of wellness offers. Long walks on the beach promote health and relaxation.
Langeoog offers numerous opportunities for hiking and cycling tours, e.g. to the eastern tip of the island with the seal banks or to the south-western end. The island is attractive at any time of year, especially in spring and fall, when nature shines in all its glory. You can reach the island via the Esens-Bensersiel ferry port, from where a ferry and a tourist train take visitors to the center of the island.
