Strandportal Bensersiel
The beach portal is not only the "gateway" to the beach, but combines many useful facilities under one roof. The friendly team of the tourist information will be happy to help you with all your questions, directly at the beach cash desk you can rent beach chairs and in the store next door you can find souvenirs, postcards and stamps.
On the second floor there are changing exhibitions of East Frisian artists and a reading area with magazines, newspapers. Lectures, concerts, readings, handicraft courses and other events take place in the three event rooms - the seminar room, the games and handicrafts room and the event hall.
