Why Coastal Rowing in Amrum

Community: in Amrum is one of the Coastal Rowing centers in Germany. Many clubs and coastal rowers have been coming to Amrum for years to organize “CoastalRowing Total” for a few days.

The centerpiece: the beach. Amrum, one of the North Frisian Islands in the North Sea, is often praised for its picturesque beaches. Here are some reasons why many people consider Amrum to be a place with particularly beautiful beaches:

Natural beauty: Amrum offers a natural and unspoiled environment. The beaches stretch along the coast and are surrounded by dunes, sandbanks and diverse flora.
White, champagne sand: The beaches on Amrum are often characterized by fine, white sand, which can shine particularly beautifully in the sunshine. The light-colored sand is pleasant for walking and relaxing.
