Additional Surfing Infos
 respect the locals...take some fish with you for the seals ;o)

otherwise: take a voluminous board, Mini Malibu or fish serve best, and go there at low tide!
  Overview
  Atmosphere In my opinion is this the best spot in Northern Germany! Where else do you get offshore winds, up to head high waves in sunny conditions in our cold country and best of all: very clean and long waves that break at a "Pointbreak"?

And no surfers at all (beside me and two friends) and no coolness at the spot (other than the water, haha)

Come and join us!
  General OK, it only works in strong winds and the best direction is W-NW, but at least the wind is offshore at this jetty!
The waves are a little mushy and not fast or powerfull, but it´s great fun, nevertheless!

ferry from downtown hamburg
there's a ferry from downtown Hamburg every day and a cool campground on the small beach island-there used to be a small second hand surf shop in Hamburg-Altona where you can even rend a board and wetsuite (dunno if it still exists)
