Glamping on the North Sea

Soft sand dunes, vast landscapes and a wide range of water sports - the North Sea coast is perfect for a camping holiday. Glamping on the North Sea is ideal for those who don't want to compromise on comfort. The artificial word glamping is made up of the English words "glamorous" and "camping". In contrast to simple camping, glamping offers travellers fixed, fully equipped accommodation with comfortable beds and a touch of luxury in the midst of beautiful natural landscapes.

The most beautiful glamping sites on the North Sea

Along the North Sea coast, which stretches across Germany, Denmark and the Netherlands, holidaymakers will find countless beautiful spots where comfortable camping is possible.

The province of Zeeland in the south-west of the Netherlands is a real Mecca for camping holidaymakers. Fine sandy beaches invite you to swim and idyllic river deltas invite you to go canoeing. So it's no wonder that the choice of glamping accommodation such as beach lodges or glamping tents directly on the North Sea is particularly large in this landscape characterised by water. Luxury camping on the North Sea is also possible on the Dutch island of Texel. Here, picturesque nature reserves and gentle dune landscapes tempt you to explore and relax.

German campsites are also increasingly offering luxurious rental accommodation on the North Sea, for example in Norddeich or Dornumersiel directly on the Wadden Sea. These also invite you to go on fascinating mudflat hikes. Equipped with wellies and binoculars, you can explore the muddy seabed in search of sandpipers, crabs etc. Sylt also has a chic maritime flair to offer. The North Frisian island is known for its picturesque natural landscapes and exclusive boutiques - so glamping fits in perfectly. A little further north, the Danish coast promises peace and relaxation.
