Schönberg and experiencing the nature of the Baltic Sea

Sit back in a roofed wicker beach chair and enjoy the view of the Baltic Sea. The little ones love splashing around in the shallow water and digging in the sand. The countryside offers wonderful hiking and cycling trails for active people. Sports fans will enjoy the possibilities offered by the Baltic Sea - windsurfing, kite surfing, canoeing, pedal boating, or dinghy and catamaran sailing. In Schönberg, the Probstei Museum (museum of old buildings and local culture), the Kindheitsmuseum (Museum of Childhood) and the Museumsbahnhof (Museum Station) are worth a visit. The state capital of Kiel is easy to get to.
