How to get there
Sylt is an island in the North Sea, next to the border with Denmark. By train to Westerland. By car to Niebuell, then on a train shuttle to Westerland or to Romo (Denmark), then by ferry to List/Sylt. The ferry is cheaper, the car train is very expensive! Drive North from Westerland and follow the signs to Kampen. Drive through Kampen and when the water is close to the road at the right side, look for 2 parking lots at the left. You can park on either one (parking fee). Now walk quiet a long way through the high dunes until you come to the beach. Go left or right where only few people are around.
