Plan your tour so that you drive along the dike at low tide. This is more beautiful

Dangast Sluice

Highlight • Structure

On the way to/from Wilhelmshaven you inevitably come across here by bike and should stop for a few minutes. Harbor with shrimp boats, Dangast with beach, dike with sheep, etc.

Dangast Harbour

Highlight • Beach

Dangast is a place, I think, where almost everyone feels comfortable! Everything is easy here. Even the dogs are welcome in the spa hotel Dangast and the local sandy beach.

Finally a view over the Jade Bay to Wilhelmshafen and a well-visited beach. So far the tour, always up the high dike on the right, has been a bit monotonous.
Varel harbor excluded.

Hello from the coast. Today we went to Wilhelmshaven, largely on or on the dike. With a sharp easterly wind, I was happy to be able to set the engine higher than Eco 😅 . Wilhelmshaven isn't pretty where we were, to put it diplomatically. Worth seeing is the inner harbor with the movable bridge and the BW Museum. Then …

Headed off in the rain this morning after an overnight stay in a beach sleeping basket and a heavy thunderstorm.
After a short time it dried up and we had a tailwind as far as Wilhelmhaven.
Due to the weather and motivation, we broke up and took the train to Esens.

Today we went from Dangast to Wilhelmshaven again (with a full cell phone battery). The weather was great today and this time the ride often went directly along the water to the Kaiser Wilhelm Bridge. We parked the bikes there and walked down the promenade. There are many places to get something to eat and drink with a beautiful view …

Just go straight on and then briefly to the left. There is a headwind on the way there. Easily doable with a short break at Ceciliengroden. Please take a look at the exclusive suburb with its beautiful antique workers' houses from 1910!!

In changeable weather, we continued along the Ems-Jade Canal and then along the dike of Ellenserdammersiel and the Jade Bay to Dangast. Along the way, we were able to admire the 7 panels relating to the construction of the dike at Mariensiel and the corresponding statues of Creation, also divided into 7 days. I captured all of this via 📷. …
