Still almost undiscovered by international visitors, this little town near Lübeck teems with beer gardens and green parks, lovely cafés and restaurants, as well as fun-filled sports opportunities. Some of the best places to stay in Timmendorfer Strand face the spectacular five miles of golden sands which fringe the Baltic Sea — perfect for a rejuvenating retreat!

Amble around town to admire pretty 19th-century edifices bedecked with flowers. Pop into independent boutiques and galleries, try craft workshops, or pick a perch at a lively café. The Sea Life Centre will delight little ones, who will also adore building sandcastles on the beach or splashing around in the waves. Go snorkelling and sailing as a family, play a game fo beach volleyball, or simply soak up the sunshine on the sand. The Sports Beach Club, which opens from May each year, offers a whole host of activities on both land and water.

Take the whole family to the Bird Park Niendorf, play a round of golf on the verdant 18-hole course, or join cheering crowds in watching a tournament at the Beach Volleyball Stadium. Summer visitors can expect a programme of open-air concerts, too. This is undoubtedly the most popular time to visit — book your room at one of the best places to stay in Timmendorfer Strand well in advance.
