Sylt

Sylt is best known within Schleswig-Holstein for its long North Sea beaches, dune belts and exposed island coastline. Germany’s northernmost island lies off the Jutland Peninsula, with the Wadden Sea stretching along its eastern side; this tidal environment forms part of the UNESCO-listed Wadden Sea. Westerland is Sylt’s principal resort town, while Kampen is associated with thatched houses and the Rotes Kliff, a striking red cliff on the west coast. The Hindenburgdamm railway causeway has connected the island to the mainland since 1927, underlining Sylt’s close links with the region.
