During the winter, many of Germany's normally well populated tourist areas fall into something of a winter sleep. Which is fine with some people, because such quiet is precisely what they're looking for. The German North Sea coast is just such a place. Fog shrouded beaches, the seemingly endless expanse of the mudflats, and the fresh, invigorating sea air are only some of the attractions that impel people to spend winter holidays here.
At St. Peter Ording, a popular health resort on the coast, visitors strolling along the beach sometimes find pieces of amber that have washed ashore with the tide. Polished amber is one of the things commonly seen in tourist gift shops here. One of the best ways to shake off the cold after a walk along the beach is to pay a visit to the Donentherme, a huge swimming pool/sauna complex that features a wave-maker and heated sea water.
We also travel along the coast to the region known as East Frisia. East Frisians may not have a Donentherme, but they do ways of combating the cold. The region has been known for centuries for its cozy little tea rooms, where visitors can enjoy cups of steaming tea served with rock sugar and cream.
