Location and surroundings of object
The holiday home is located in the best location of Harlesiel, only a short distance from the marina, the ferry pier, and the dyke crossing to the outer harbor and bathing beach. With just a few steps, you can reach the pier of the paddle steamer "Concordia II". Combined with a small boat tour, you have the opportunity to explore the idyllic museum harbor of Carolinensiel with its historical flat-bottomed sailboats. Leave your car at the accommodation and use the "carobahn", which is free for North Sea Service Card holders, to go to Carolinensiel or to take a tour. The nearest stops from the apartment are located at the bakery or at the beach. The train runs from April 14th to October 31st, daily from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
In just a few minutes' walk, you can reach the nearest restaurant and the bakery. Here you can buy fresh rolls and delicious cakes during the season.
In the town center of Carolinensiel, you'll find restaurants, cafés, supermarkets, banks, doctors (general practitioners and dentists), a hairdresser, and several shops for strolling, souvenirs, maritime gifts, and everything for beach equipment.
During the season, there is a weekly market every Tuesday at the Museum Harbor.
Of course, you can also walk the approximately 2 km distance to the town center. Along the beautiful Harle promenade, there is much to discover, such as the view of the new "Seeperlen" (stilt houses), the sailing school "Harlesail" with trial sailing trips, the historic lifeboat shed, the Friedrichsschleuse, Cliner Quelle (with swimming pool, sauna, fitness, wellness, and restaurant), cafes, restaurants, Siel-hafenmuseum with the Old Parsonage and National Park House. Along the roadside, you will find several benches for resting, and you can also refresh yourself with a fish sandwich from the coastal smokehouse.
Also located just a few minutes' walk from the holiday home is the outer harbor of Harlesiel. There, excursions such as to the seal banks are offered. From the newly opened "Wattkieker" restaurant in 2014, you have a beautiful view of the harbor and the island ferries, and in clear weather, also of the East Frisian Islands Wangerooge, Spiekeroog, and Langeoog. With some luck, you might meet a shrimp fisherman at the harbor and watch as the fresh catch is unloaded (currently not possible).
Next, we head to the sandy beach. Here you have the option to rent a beach chair to relax in the sun, sheltered from the wind, or to visit the newly completed adventure golf course "Wattengolf". At each mini-golf course, there are information signs that explain interesting facts about the Wadden Sea.
During a walk along the beach promenade, you can enjoy the view of the Wadden Sea World Heritage Site (mind the tides) and breathe in the salty sea air. Harlesiel also offers a heated outdoor swimming pool and a sunbathing lawn.

Best location - great apartment
We were allowed to be guests in the Scholle apartment for 14 days and felt extremely comfortable. In good weather, there is a large garden with a terrace and a beach chair (with weatherproof cushions ;-) ) available. In drearier weather, a reading afternoon can be spent very well in the excellently equipped and cozy apartment. From the tealight to the accompanying lighter, to plenty of cushions and wool blankets, and the tasteful decoration to the slatted frame in the comfortable beds, everything is included to spend a truly lovely time. Not to forget, of course, the location - through the garden in 2 minutes to the beach / dike or just as quickly out front via the stairs located at the Concordia jetty. We brought the bicycles, which had a good shelter in a separate shed. If something is available again, we would love to come back :-).
