As its name would suggest, the Frisian island of
Langeoog is a longish
island.
It’s got a dogleg shape and,
at around 14 kilometers in length, there’s plenty of broad,
flat beach for a long hike. Nearer town are the Strandkörbe,
or beach baskets. They’re
available for rent at around EUR 10
per day, or half that if you rent only in the
afternoon. For an evening sunset, people often just find a vacant one
and enjoy as the money collector will have closed up his kiosk for the
day. Also near town are
the amenities of public restrooms as well as various refreshments, from
drink and
snack stands to sit-down restaurants.
Once away from town
one can enjoy solitude with sea and sand, even in the peak season.
For the athletic there is volleyball, windsurfing and swimming. And for
those
whose idea of high adventure is a thrilling novel, there’s
ample quiet in which to enjoy it. Langeoog is a great place to get away
from it all and have yourself a good think — without
sacrificing the comforts of home.
