Day trip from Hamburg, St. Peter-Ording coastal resort

One day, we took a day trip out of Hamburg and drove to the North Sea coast, to a modern coastal resort town, St. Peter-Ording. Here is a view over the dunes of the Westerhever lighthouse. I found the coastline very beautiful with the sand dunes and tall grass - we don't have that along the coastal waters of BC.

After walking along the beach for several hours it was time for dinner. My cousin recommended a favourite local eatery, Die Seekiste restaurant. This seashanty is on tall pilings on the beach, as well as some neighboring public washrooms.
I was told that during storms in the winter that the tide comes in quite high with a vegence. The portions at this restaurant were enormous! Of course it specialized in seafood, and there was a lot to choose from. I highly recommend this place as well.
