After several days on the Flensburg Fjord, a stopover with a nice tour in Eckernförde. The ensemble of promenade and spacious beach, harbor area and pedestrian zone was definitely fun.

Unfortunately, I didn't take any photos of a few sights such as the old, wooden bascule bridge in the harbor. 😬

I can recommend a little detour to the candy …
