Grüner Brink, Protected area on Fehmarn's north coast, Germany.

The Grüner Brink nature reserve spans 134 hectares along the Baltic Sea, featuring three shallow lagoons separated from the open water.

Following the flood disaster of 1872, the construction of a protective dike altered coastal currents, leading to the formation of barrier spits.

The reserve serves as a vital habitat for 170 bird species, with the red-necked grebe designated as the characteristic bird of the area.

The protected area contains marked paths for hiking and cycling, with a NABU conservation warden providing guided tours during summer months.

Natural processes shaped this dynamic coastal landscape over 100 years, creating an environment constantly modified by high tides and sea currents.
