    Niederegger

    Pick up some marzipan or hot chocolate at Niederegger. Founded in 1806, this shop and café is an institution in Lübeck and Travemünde. A visit to buy some marzipan or drink a hot chocolate is a must.

  2. 10:20

    MS Sven Johannsen

    Walk to the MS Sven Johannsen. Sea and harbour cruises, trips along Trave river to Lübeck or along the Baltic Sea to Grömitz or Boltenhagen. Check the route for departure times.

    Fisch Paul

    Grab a fish sandwich at Fisch Paul. An institution for fish sandwiches. Open only during the summer. No fixed closing time, but usually closes at sunset.

  4. 11:40

    Beach

    Head to the Beach. The 1.7 km of white sand is the town's main attraction and the beach is, without a doubt, the place to be during the summer. The beach is the main reason why this town has been a popular seaside resor.

Local tip

Niederegger is open from 10:00 on Sundays and 09:00 on weekdays, making it a perfect start. Fisch Paul closes around sunset, so enjoy your sandwich while the light is still good.
