Juist, Coastal spa island in Lower Saxony, Germany
The 17-kilometer-long North Sea island features fine sand beaches, white surf, and numerous colorful beach chairs along its shoreline.
Storm tides during the 17th and 18th centuries split the island into two parts, leading to the construction of a protective dune dike around 1770.
Local residents refer to Juist as Töwerland in their East Frisian dialect, reflecting the island's connection to regional maritime traditions.
The island maintains a car-free environment, with transportation limited to bicycles and horse-drawn carriages for moving people and goods.
Lake Hammersee transformed from a saltwater body to freshwater in 1928 following the completion of northern shore repairs.
