St. Peter-Ording

Built on sandSailing on the beach. Going for a walk. Enjoy culinary delights. Let yourself be pampered. Experience human originals. Being outdoors ... St. Peter-Ording is booming and reinventing itself - without denying its origins as a family seaside resort. More and more people are finding the town and its fading former charm more exciting than Sylt - and rightly so: from nature to sporting events and fun sports, from biike burning to kite festivals and wellness experiences, from gourmet stops to the best cycling and walking routes, from the history of a small seaside resort to the construction of pile dwellings and the over one kilometer long beach promenade: nothing is left out in this book. And each individual section is enriched with background information on formative personalities (thatchers, lifeguards, pile dwelling owners, conservationists, amber collectors).Around 100 photos show everything: from fun to relaxation - plus 15 portraits photographed by Harald Schmitt (6-time winner of the World Press Photo Award)Contents Sand
