Camping am Deich
Camping am Deich is a campground in Upleward, Krummhörn, located next to the protective dike that borders the North Sea coast. The site offers pitches on soft grass surrounded by marshland, with modern facilities including creatively designed bathhouses shaped like a ship and a lighthouse.
The area has long been shaped by fishing and shipbuilding traditions, which remain visible in old houses and boats scattered throughout the landscape. The campground was developed as a simple place to bring visitors closer to the coastal environment and the sea.
The site takes its name from the dike that borders it, a structure central to how people here relate to the sea. Visitors experience daily life as it unfolds in this coastal landscape, where the boundary between land and water shapes how locals live and work.
The site operates year-round and offers pitches with optional water and electricity connections. Visitors will find the ground flat and easy to navigate, with plenty of level space for pitching tents or parking caravans.
The site holds a certificate for ecological camping practices, showing how visitors can enjoy nature while protecting it. Built about 50 years ago, it looks modern and well-maintained, reflecting the care the owners put into keeping it in shape.
