This image was taken across the road from the Strandhotel Hohenzollern, looking west onto the laguna of Borkum Beach. There is an elevated pedestrian path above the beach, giving you a higher perspective, which will allow you to capture the details of the beach tents.
To get there, you can either take the Inselbahn or bus. If coming by the Inselbahn, get off at Am Georg-Schütte-Platz and then follow the signs to "Strand" (beach).
