Get front-row seats to the stunning Bay of Luebeck in this seaside resort, where a lively promenade overlooks the beach and a luxurious Baltic Sea spa.

Scharbeutz is a bayside retreat on the Baltic Coast of Schleswig-Holstein. Rest and rejuvenate in this pretty coastal town, renowned for its curative sea air and gorgeous waters. Scharbeutz’s waterfront promenade wraps around the Bay of Luebeck, providing plenty of space to stroll, cycle or spy a perfect swimming spot from a bayside café.

Get acquainted with the hypnotic Baltic Sea horizon from Scharbeutz’s Strandallee. A narrow strip of foreshore parkland separates this waterfront promenade from the soft sands of the bay. Go for a morning walk along the promenade or jump on your bike and explore Scharbeutz’s waterfront end-to-end. Stop by the town’s Pier, which mark’s the town’s action-packed centre. The area surrounding the pier is known as the Scharbeutzer Dünenmeile (Dune Mile) and is a lively hub of cafés, restaurants and cocktail lounges. Many dining establishments have seating directly on the beach, so you can grab a drink and dig your toes into the soft sand.

Scharbeutz comes alive on a sunny day. Stretch out on the sand and swim in the gentle waters of the bay. If you’re travelling with youngsters, take them to the waterfront park by the pier and splash under the fountains. You can try windsurf or fly a kite when the sea breeze picks up. Check out the local programme of events and join salsa classes or quigong sessions on the beach.

The Ostsee Therme Scharbeutz provides a relaxing retreat with luxurious spas on the Baltic Coast. The town stays lively throughout winter, too. Have fun on an ice rink or watch exciting ice-skating performances.

Scharbeutz is an easy 20-minute train ride from the regional centre of Luebeck. Pick from deluxe waterfront hotels and have Scharbeutz’s exciting promenade on your doorstep. For a laid-back getaway on the Bay of Lübeck, make your first stop Scharbeutz.
