Westerland, Coastal spa town in Sylt, Germany
The town extends along the western coast of Sylt island, featuring broad sandy beaches and a central promenade lined with shops and restaurants.
The development of Westerland as a seaside resort began in 1855 when the first bathhouse was constructed, marking the start of organized beach activities.
The Syltness Center maintains traditional North Sea wellness practices through sea water treatments, mineral-rich mud applications, and specialized maritime therapies.
The town contains multiple spa facilities, restaurants, and accommodations within walking distance of the beach, connected by direct train service to mainland Germany.
The marine climate produces exceptionally clean air with minimal dust particles, while sea spray creates natural aerosols beneficial for respiratory health.
