Krummsteert-Sulsdorfer Wiek, a nature preserve on the southwestern tip of Fehmarn Island, offers a serene escape into coastal wilderness. Established in 1980, this protected area encompasses diverse ecosystems, including the Krummsteert spit, Sulsdorfer Wiek bay, salt marshes, and the Baltic Sea. It's a haven for birdwatchers, nature photographers, and anyone seeking tranquility amidst stunning landscapes.
