Heringsdorf vacation rentals

By the sea, by the sea, by the Baltic sea

Situated on the Baltic Sea, the resort town of Heringsdorf shares the island of Usedom with other spa destinations. All are ideal for lounging on the beach, diving in the sea, and exploring the local history of this charming region. Stroll along the promenade connecting Heringsdorf to two neighboring towns, collectively called the Kaiserbad. Or, if you prefer to stay even closer to home, take a walk along Heringsdorf Pier, out into the Baltic Sea. Opt for a Heringsdorf vacation rental close to the famed beaches, and spend your days enjoying the German seaside.

Almost as much to see indoors as there is out

There are a few museums worth visiting in Heringsdorf, catering to interests ranging from local history to nature. Architecture lovers will enjoy the Baderarchitektur, a German word referencing the spa architecture specific to the region's villas. The Villa Irmgard, in particular, is a former spa turned museum, dedicated to Heringsdorf's local history. Don't miss the fossils and tropical fish celebrating Baltic Sea life at the Naturerlebniswelt natural history museum, and take the kids out for a day to hang with the animals at the the Tropenzoo Bansin.

Boats, bikes, birds, and beaches by the Baltic

Like the rest of Usedom island, much of Heringsdorf is best enjoyed outside. Go hiking, biking, and birdwatching along the paths that line the coast, or spend a night away from your Heringsdorf vacation rental at one of the many seaside campsites. Book a boat tour excursion out into the Baltic Sea, whether it's to go deep sea fishing, diving, or just for a sunset swim. Or, if you prefer, stay in town and enjoy the local spa, restaurant, and cafe scene, go shopping, and enjoy the laidback ambiance of this pleasant resort destination.

Def take a little peek during peak season

Like much of Usedom Island, July and August are Heringsdorf's peak months for a reason. The summer days warm and inviting, with the sunlight hours lasting late into the evening. This does make for crowded beaches and higher prices, but never fear! The shoulder seasons are certainly a viable alternative, so consider a Heringdorf vacation rental in late spring or early fall. You'll still find mild weather and a handful of beach days, plus smaller crowds and lower prices. Winters in Heringsdorf can be gray and cold, but it also offers a true glimpse of local life.

You may have a hard time believing you're really in Germany

Thanks to its spot on the German island of Usedom, the city of Heringsdorf has a prime view of the Baltic Sea. The town also boasts sandy beaches, a fishing pier, and miles and miles of coastline. Further inland, you'll find forested areas perfect for hiking in the shade, as well as spotting the local birds and wildlife. If marine life is more your speed, book a boat tour out into the Baltic, or try your hand at snorkeling or scuba diving. There are plenty of hidden treasures to explore, lurking just below sea level.
