Tips from the Community
The panoramic view at sunset or sunrise is highly recommended. The view of the most varied colors cannot be described and is also difficult to capture in photos. Also beautiful is the view of the lighthouse in the fairway, which is then easily recognizable by its green light.

From this spot, you have a great view of the Kiel Bay. Whether with the naked eye, with a coin-operated telescope, or with binoculars, you can observe the ships sailing towards Kiel or vice versa into the fjord. Behind you stands the lighthouse, offering a beautiful photo opportunity, or the view of the Naval Memorial in Laboe. It is particularly special during Kiel Week when the sailing ships pass by.

I've seen seals here from time to time. There's certainly no guarantee of a sighting, though. That's nature.

The Bülk lighthouse. A still active lighthouse, but operated from Lübeck.

Here lie old fishing boats, inviting exploration... and to complement them, you can get delicious fish sandwiches here.

From the headland by the lighthouse, you have a magnificent view into the Kiel Fjord... there's always something going on on the water: huge cruise ships, small sailboats and water sports enthusiasts.
