Greetsiel is a beautiful, small town and part of the municipality of Krummhörn. There are a lot of older houses. The harbor with its shrimp cutters is particularly worth seeing. In the season, however, Greetsiel is very busy.

Nice tour. Tip: When the wind is north, it is best to drive on the inside of the dike to the Leyschleuse. !

Exploring Greetsiel and the surrounding area. I took advantage of the dry evening to explore the area. A side road led me to a farm. Unfortunately it was a dead end and I had to go back about 1.2 km.
Other than that, a nice tour.
