    Not only the Friesenstrand with its child-friendly facilities (pirate beach with water and adventure playground and numerous play equipment), but also the offers around it are great, short walks by the sea towards Eckwarderhörne or towards Ruhwarden are beautiful and pure nature and sea.
    - You can rent the mobile family vehicles called "Tossi" or e-bikes and go on great bike tours; Cycle path network of 250 kilometers on the peninsula
    - Tossens offers so much for families
    -Unique in Tossens is the Wattmobile, which also offers older people or people with disabilities the opportunity to experience the Wadden Sea
    - Visit to the Severn organic farm with its Jersey cattle and horses
    - “Aquafun” adventure pool in the Centerparcs; there are a total of 4 swimming levels on 4000 m². Each of the levels is connected to a water slide, etc.
    - Sauna area with steam bath or herbal sauna

      Blank Hans stands on the dike crossing in Tossens. The sculpture is part of the “Invisible Sights” series, created by the artists Bärbel Deharde and Ute Extra.
      If climate change continues and the storms become stronger, "Blank Hans" will certainly hit the Butjadinger coast more often. It has been in Tossens since 2009. Even when there is no wind, it sits on the top of the dike as a constant reminder made of stainless steel.

        At authentic locations in the Wesermarsch, the acoustic sculptures created by Bärbel Deharde and Ute Extra create visual spaces and auditory worlds in which past events can be traced and the unknown can be rediscovered.
        In the vastness of the marsh between mudflats, meadows and the Weser there are hidden mysterious places, myths and traces of past events that are not revealed at first glance. Time and the forces of nature have destroyed or forgotten many of the sights in this historic landscape. The goal of the two above-mentioned people is to make invisible sights visible again. artists.
