SPIEKEROOG
ARRIVE AND LET GO.
Your vacation begins with the first step onto the ferry. A slow pace. Gentle waves. A salty sea breeze. And the comforting feeling that everything has been thought of here. Leave everyday life behind on the mainland, and immerse yourself in island life. A rhythm all its own - in tune with the tides.
Discover the island treasures, large and small. Alone, as a couple, or with the family. On Spiekeroog, you'll find everything you need. Time to contemplate. An opportunity to reflect on what's important. Peace and quiet.
