Fresh fish is abundant

Visitors easily acquire a taste for the island through fresh fish, traditional Pomeranian home cooking or the excellent gourmet cuisine of Michelin star awarded chefs. Fine food is available for all tastes and to everyone’s budget. The leading part plays regional products and fresh fish from the Baltic Sea, the Achterwasser or the Peenestrom. During the “Heringswochen” (Herring Weeks) in springtime the partaking restaurants spoil visitors with their very own creations of herring. Every year in May foodies get together for the “Grand Schlemm” (Grand Feast). This is a six kilometres long culinary stroll along the beach between Ahlbeck and Bansin with numerous stops for feasting and resting. Come October visitors are invited to restaurants and inns to take part in the “Wildwochen” (Venison Weeks). At this time everything revolves around venison and food derived from the woods.

Good living and good food has always been an excellent pair and thus the island’s fish and gourmet restaurants are a major attraction to visitors. In 2013 the chef Tom Wickboldt with his gourmet restaurant “Wickboldt” in Heringsdorf earned the much longed for Michelin-star, which he could defend in 2015 and 2016. By combining a harmonious surrounding with his stellar art of cooking, he is capable of carrying anyone off to culinary heaven. On the other hand Jörn Gleissner, chef in the Aurelia Restaurant “1900” in Heringsdorf, is specialised on historic recipes. His “Nouveau Pomeranian Cuisine” offers traditional delicacies of the region in a fresh and contemporary interpretation.

A raft trip on the “Becky” starting off in the harbour of Rankwitz and exploring the Achterwasser Lagoon is another culinary highlight. Gentle music and the slow movement of the vessel in combination with a fourcourse meal at sunset and a lovely glass of wine can help anyone unwind.

Outdoor cafés in Rankwitz, Krummin, Neuendorf, and Neppermin spoil their guests with delicious cake creations and coffee specialities. Two private breweries with gastronomy situated in Heringsdorf and Mellenthin provide insights into the art of brewing.
