Moments of happiness on Usedom
White sandy beaches shine endlessly, the wide pine forests on the shores have a slightly resinous scent, the sea tickles the palate with a soft and salty tickling – Usedom beguiles with its charms in every season. But perhaps the island is always best experienced when music from the atmospheric churches, the imperial villas, the sublime castles sounds – a harmony that you can hear and feel every year at the Usedom Music Festival – exclusive musical experiences, big stars, musical treasures in a maritime flair included, in short: moments of happiness on Usedom!
Sun-kissed and of natural beauty
With an average of 1,906 hours of sunshine per year, the sun shines nowhere else in Germany as frequently as on the country’s second largest island – the island of Usedom. In addition to the hours of sunshine, there is a 42 km long, up to 70 m wide, fine sandy beach, special climatic conditions, extensive forests, the dreamy landscape of the Achterwasser or the island’s north, as well as many lakes and small villages, which together guarantee a relaxing holiday. As a visitor to the concerts of the Usedom Music Festival, these corners will not remain hidden from you, be it during the evening walk before the concert or the enjoyable stop for a bite to eat.
Diverse landscapes of the arts
The scenic attractions of Usedom are joined by artistic diversity with charisma. In addition to the Usedom Music Festival as the event highlight with international significance in late summer, the Usedom Literature Days in spring have established themselves as a permanent fixture on the event calendar of the island of Usedom. Internationally outstanding authors such as Donna Leon, Martin Walser, Hans-Magnus Enzensberger and many more welcomes the literature serie every year and awards the Usedom Literature Prize to outstanding young writers. During the Usedom Music Festival, visitors also experience readings on the many different country focuses. Usedom’s reputation as an island of well-known visual artists is lived up to by the Usedom Music Festival with concerts in galleries and studios such as the Otto Niemeyer-Holstein studio. The festival thus combines the artistic tradition of the island with its mission to celebrate, discover and stage the music of the countries around the Baltic Sea amidst the unique maritime flair of Usedom.
Take a deep breath. The spicy air on the island of Usedom is unmistakable. Where else do sea and nature meet so uniquely as on the sunny island. The white beach, 42 kilometres long and up to 70 metres wide, magically attracts holidaymakers. Usedom is perfect for spillover castle builders, beach joggers, sun-seekers, but also for amber collectors, beach golfers and ice bathers.
Like no other region in Germany, Usedom offers a wealth of certified wellness hotels. Here, guests can expect fantastic pampering offers, such as chocolate massage, milk bath or treatments with Heringsdorfer iodine brine.
Pompous spa architecture villa or nostalgic holiday under a thatched roof? Whatever you choose, first-class holiday apartments and hotels are available for you on Usedom. Whether you are travelling to one of the lively seaside resorts or prefer the peace and quiet of one of the fairytale fishing villages in the Achterland, as a family or romantically as a couple - on Usedom, everyone gets their money's worth.
However, wellness on Usedom is by no means limited to the wellness oases in the hotels. The island itself, with its natural resources, represents the basic potential for the health-conscious guest. The stone-free, white sandy beach; the natural synergy of water and forest and the mild bracing climate are just right for those who want to do something special for themselves. In other words: the most distinctive wellness offers are available free of charge in the open air on Usedom.
