An experience in every season
One of the most beautiful towns on Rügen is located very close to our Rügen water holiday world: the princely residence town of Putbus, also known as the "White City of the North". It is the cultural centre of Rügen, with a variety of theatre performances, concerts, art exhibitions and small galleries. Historical places such as the castle church and orangery, the stables or the landscape park offer a wonderful ambience that is particularly enchanting in spring and summer.
Tips in the immediate vicinity:
The district of Lauterbach, where our water holiday world is located, is a meeting point for numerous visitors who love the sea and would like to spend every free minute by the water. Idyllically located in Southeast Rügen Biosphere Reserve However, it has been spared from the usual mass tourism and is therefore a paradise for those seeking peace and quiet. The forest of the same name and the nature reserve begin right behind the Goor bathhouse. From here, narrow paths stretch along the small sandy cliffs, whose partly hidden, idyllic bathing spots invite you to linger.
