Welcome to Priwall, a unique beach destination on Germany's Baltic Sea coast, known for its peaceful and natural character. Reached via a short ferry ride from the lively resort of Travemünde, the Priwall peninsula offers a distinct escape for those seeking tranquility. Unlike its bustling neighbor, Priwall is celebrated for its wide, uncrowded sandy beach backed by dunes and forests, making it a paradise for relaxation. Its calm, shallow waters are particularly popular with families, offering a safe environment for children to play.
While Priwall’s own beach is a major draw, its location makes it an excellent starting point for exploring the varied coastline of the Lübeck Bay. Just across the river, you'll find the famous Travemünder Kurstrand, with its iconic beach chairs and vibrant promenade. A short journey away, Timmendorfer Strand presents an upscale and iconic seaside experience, perfect for a day trip. For those willing to drive a bit further, Südstrand on the island of Fehmarn is renowned for its vast stretches of fine sand and family-friendly atmosphere. Back on the peninsula, the main beach seamlessly transitions eastward into the even wilder, more secluded Rosenhagen beach, ideal for long, quiet walks.
Priwall is the ideal choice for a restorative beach holiday focused on nature and serenity. The expansive main beach caters to various preferences, offering designated areas for both dog owners and nudist (FKK) sunbathers, ensuring a comfortable experience for all visitors. Whether you are building sandcastles with family, enjoying a quiet walk along the water's edge, or simply relaxing in the sun, the peninsula provides a serene backdrop.
