The sandy beach on the Geesthacht lock island is truly fantastic, with its many small coves. You wouldn't expect to find such a beautiful sandy beach here. It's not hidden at all and is easily visible from the Elbe bridge. It's always busy here in the summer. The free sandy beach is a paradise, especially for dogs. It's a great place to take a break, relax in the sun, and cool your feet. But please be very careful and don't go too far into the water.

Very nice section of this route. The many small bays create a beautiful landscape, the Elbe shows itself here from a "different" side.

A really nice place to hang out. Someone did a great job building it, which is great because there are several places to sit.
