Greetsiel
This pocket-sized fishing port on the Leybucht bight in western East Frisia, Greetsiel draws a notably dense café and restaurant scene for its size, with the waterfront at the centre of it all. First documented in 1388, the village is part of the Krummhörn municipality and sits within reach of the wider Wadden Sea region, with Emden — the nearest rail connection — a short bus ride away.
