Falckenstein, Beach in Pries, Germany

The Falckenstein beach extends for 2 kilometers along the Kiel Fjord, featuring fine sand and shallow water areas near the Friedrichsort lighthouse.

The beach name originates from a former fort that protected the Friedrichsort fortress, a strategic military point for controlling maritime traffic.

The beach area includes designated zones for swimming, water sports, and a special section where visitors gather for barbecues and beach activities.

The beach provides facilities such as toilets, wheelchair-accessible piers, beach volleyball courts, mini-golf, and two bistros serving food and drinks.

An artificial reef installed in 2001 creates habitats for algae and fish, while seagrass meadows grow at depths between 2 and 4 meters offshore.
