Real water lovers never get enough of the cool water. In Malente, in the middle of the Holstein Switzerland holiday region, you can experience water sports in all their variety. If you like cycling, you could, for example, set off on the Dieksee in a pedal boat. In the calm waters of the lake district, even beginners can try diving and learn easily. The Schwentine, with its romantically overgrown banks and pretty villas, is ideal for trying stand-up paddling in a beautiful setting with its shallow waters. These and many other refreshing activities are - just like the water in Malente - often just a few minutes away.

The Sehlendorfer Binnensee nature reserve is located in the municipality of Blekendorf Sehlendorf. It is crossed by a hiking trail that takes you to the most interesting places and offers breathtaking views from two platforms, among other things. The Sehlendorfer Binnensee is one of the few beach lakes on the Baltic coast that still has an open connection to the Baltic Sea, the Broeck. This increases the salt content in the lake when Baltic Sea water flows in and decreases when the water level is lower. The changing salt content is crucial for a very special animal and plant world in this protected area. The wall is partially over-thinned and is home to beach grass and beach rye as well as protected sea thistles. A typical dry grassland with silver grass, sand sedge, stonecrop and dune pansies has developed on it. On the beach itself, sea whitlow, potash saltwort, sea kale and sea mustard thrive on the protected areas. https://www.hohwachterbucht.de/entspannen-und-geniessen/natur-erleben/sehlendorfer-binnensee
