Nestled on the Baltic Sea island of Usedom, Ueckeritz offers a tranquil beach holiday defined by nature. It is known for a quieter, more relaxed atmosphere compared to the nearby grand "Kaiserbäder" or Imperial Spas. The resort's unique charm comes from its setting between the Baltic Sea and the Achterwasser lagoon, surrounded by extensive coastal forests that meet the fine, sandy shoreline.
The main beach, Strand Ückeritz, is celebrated for its natural, unspoiled character. A short journey away, you can experience the varied personalities of the island's other famous beaches. The elegant resort of Ahlbeck is a must-see, featuring Germany's oldest and most iconic pier. For dramatic coastal scenery, Strand Koserow provides breathtaking views from the nearby cliffs, while Zinnowitz is known for its unique diving gondola, a modern and photogenic attraction.
The coastline here presents a wonderful diversity, from the lively promenades of the famous spas to quiet, secluded stretches backed by steep, wooded cliffs. The area also embraces a long tradition of FKK, or nudist bathing, with clearly marked sections available for those who prefer a naturist experience. For a complete look at all the seaside spots, from the well-known resorts to hidden gems, explore our full list of the island's beaches.
