Strand Nieblum and Goting are sandy beaches situated on the island of Föhr in the North Sea. The beaches are wide and flat with fine sand, making them an ideal location for various activities such as building sandcastles, surfing, or simply relaxing. The beaches are divided into different sections, including a main beach, a dog beach, a kite flying beach, and a nudist beach, each catering to different preferences of the visitors.
One of the unique features of these beaches is the low water depths during low tide, exposing large parts of the mudflats and providing an opportunity for exploration in the Wadden Sea. The gradual slope into deeper waters makes these beaches particularly safe for children. The German Lifeguard Association (DLRG) also has a station in Nieblum, ensuring the safety of beachgoers.
Strand Nieblum and Goting are not only known for their natural beauty but also for their amenities. There is a playground and a large bicycle parking area at the end of Strandstraße. Refreshments are available at a small café, and water sports activities are offered by the Nieblum Windsurfing School.
For dog owners, two designated areas are available for their pets. One is located at the end of Strandstraße, and the other is just before Goting, behind the kite flying beach. Visitors interested in flying kites can do so between the main beach and the dog beach in Nieblum.
Public toilets are readily available at these beaches, located directly at the main beach and at the tourist office in Nieblum, and at the end of the nudist beach in Goting. Visitors also have the option to rent beach chairs in Nieblum at section 3 of the beach and in Goting at Klafwai.
Further west along the Gotinger beach, visitors will reach the Goting Kliff, a nine-meter-high cliff that is a popular spot for collecting beautiful stones and enjoying the evening atmosphere.
In an effort to combat plastic pollution, there are 14 beach trash boxes located at various points on the island of Föhr. Visitors are encouraged to collect and dispose of plastic or metal waste from the sea in these boxes.
The beach in Nieblum is also known for its barrier-free access point at the end of Strandstraße, making it easily accessible for wheelchair users and strollers.
