Prora

The beach also has a designated area for nudists. Accessibility is a non-issue as the beach welcomes guests with disabilities, and lifeguard services are available to ensure an optimal beach experience. The beach's claim to fame lies in the colossal building complex, The Colossus of Prora, which was constructed during Nazi Germany for military purposes but was originally intended to serve as a holiday resort.

With a variety of restaurants and bars lining the beach, there are ample amenities available for guests, including toilets, complimentary WIFI access, and ample parking space.
