Great place for hangout and pass the weekend. You can eat lots of fish items. Sea beach was too good -- you can swim, play volleyball etc.
Wonderful place to visit with family with great picturesque. The place is so lively and you get to have some delicious sea food. You got to see the beautiful sea gull flying around.
Great views of the town
Relaxing, picturesque spot on the Baltic Sea.
We visited early in the morning just as the place was coming to life. A very pleasant place to visit.
A must see place of you are around
(Translated by Google) Essentially touristy but nevertheless largely authentic and quite romantic harbor passage ... at least for a landlubber like me 😃 (Original) Im wesentlichen touristisch geprägte aber trotzdem weitgehend authentische und durchaus romantische Hafenpassage .... zumindest für eine Landratte wie mich 😃

Great place. You can climb the lighthouse and get great views. The beaches in the area are great. There is some fabulous public sculpture in the area too. The famous teapot building is close by.
We were on a cruise thru the Baltic Sea and one of the stops was Warnemunde. We walked around the town self guided using google maps. The town is rather small so it did not take long to see it all. The lighthouse is in a busy part of town on the dock area. It was easy to get to the lighthouse for an up close view. Built in 1898 and very much a part of the town.
I visited this lovely coastal town of Warnemünde whilst on a cruise. I only spent a couple of hours but was really impressed.
It’s a must place to visit while sightseeing in Rostock, In the area u also have the opportunity to visit the public beach areas plus don’t stop at the lighthouse, if you walk further u will come to a sea point where u can see two further lighthouses and also big ships coming towards the harbor.. Interesting and beautiful scenerio.. A must place in Rostock
The Warnemünde Lighthouse, a striking landmark in Rostock, Germany, stands tall at 37 meters on the Unterwarnow estuary. Erected in 1898 with white glazed bricks, it offers panoramic views from its two galleries. Once operated by a keeper, it's now automated, guiding ships with its light visible for 20 nautical miles.
It was very nice place to visit one should depart here early in the morning. And enjoy the sun near to the beach and play and take the sunshine. I love this place a lot if you need any more information you may text me at Instagram @ashwani17000
The lighthouse is definitely worth to see! Amazing view, you can read about a technology used for signaling, what's really interesting. Only what I didn't like was how the stuff haven't been speaking even a word in other language than German and even haven't been trying.
It’s nice and relaxing.

We were on a cruise thru the Baltic Sea and one of the stops was warnemunde. It is a small town so we were easily able to walk self guided all around using google maps. The Strand is a very lively area overlooking the water. Full of shops and restaurants. A fun place to spend a few hours.
Amazing place. We really loved in the morning when it was sunny and also in the evening with glittering light houses. Very peaceful place and easy to reach. There are few small restaurants to grab snacks and drinks. You can relax here for the whole, walking around or sitting there. Water was a bit cold for me so I couldn't stay in water for long. Definitely a must go place.
If you like fresh seafood and nice beaches definitely worth visiting. We went to the beach bit early (around 9 am) so able to find a good place. The water was clear, not many waves, and less crowded in the morning. Can be easily accessed via Warnemünde S Bahn station.
Best place to visit in summer. Just plan if it’s more than 20C plus wind speed is not more then 12km/h. Otherwise bring a camp or jacket to feel warm. Lot of places to eat around and also enjoy the water. There is a kinder park near by but there are not many stuff for kids to do. Water is warm in summer just the cold wind makes it uncomfortable to stay. Anything above 20C is perfect of beach 🏖 and some sun. There are some places you can rent but it cost around 5€per hour.
Very nice & longest sand beach around 30km with many attractions,beach is great separate due to your needs(fór families,with dogs,fór camping & Also fór FKK),,theres Also long promenade with small shops and at the end is large harbour( place for geatest photos to do)
Warnemünde Strand is a coastal paradise, and its sunsets are absolutely stunning. The beauty of this beach goes beyond its sandy shores and clear waters—it's the sunsets that truly steal the show. As the sun begins to set, the sky over Warnemünde Strand transforms into a breathtaking display of colors. The warm oranges and pinks mix with the cool blues of the sea, creating a mesmerizing painting in the sky. You'll have plenty of space on the beach to find your ideal spot for watching the sunset. Whether you decide to sit on the sand, take a leisurely stroll along the promenade, or relax at one of the beachfront cafes, you're in for a treat. The soothing sounds of the waves in the background add to the magic of the moment. And as the sun dips below the horizon, casting a shimmering reflection on the water, you'll be left in awe of nature's beauty. These sunsets at Warnemünde Strand are not just a visual delight; they're an experience that leaves a lasting impression. It's the kind of sunset that makes you pause, reflect, and feel grateful for the simple joys in life. In summary, Warnemünde Strand is the perfect place to witness some of the most beautiful sunsets imaginable. It's a destination that reminds us of the wonders of the natural world and leaves us feeling deeply appreciative.
It's a big nice beach. Denmark is just 70 km opposite. Baltic sea water is a bit cold even in summer. You can find lots of fish based dishes on the way to the beach. Swimming is allowed and safe. This review is not about the FKK/nude beach.

A beautiful church with two model ships suspended in the aisles. Was fortunate to enter before a service and hear the beautiful organ.
A very beautiful evangelische church witin the city. The architecture is neo-gothic and is almost completeyl made up of red stone. Is widely visited by most of the people who visit Warnemünde. There is a big parking lot and a decent market place with shopping and eating joints around the church area.
Pretty location, and what is actually a very well constructed church, however it is not open to visitors (at least on the day we were there).
This church, in its simplicity, somehow manages to impose itself as an elegant and dominating landmark.
It's a beautiful church. Adds to the beauty of warnemunde. 😊
Very nice and quiet reflective place. Has a nice video audio display about the organs of the church, but text is in German only, but you can listen to the sound
Very nice .. good restuarants and coffe shops nearby
Beautiful place must visit.

(Translated by Google) We were completely happy. And also a very nice lady who rented the apartment. (Original) Wir sind rund um glücklich gewesen. Und auch eine sehr nette Dame die die Wohnung vermietet hat.
(Translated by Google) The apartment is beautiful. But almost next to the bedroom there is a box in which there is a clicking and clicking sound that makes it impossible to sleep. Vacation is over before it begins (Original) Die Wohnung ist schön. Aber fast neben dem Schlafzimmer hängt ein Kasten in dem es klickert und knackt, das an schlafen nicht zu denken ist. Urlaub ist vorbei, bevor er angefangen hat
(Translated by Google) - very warm in summer because of the attic apartment. + no fan or air conditioning -No internet, even if it says so on the website -Location is very good (Original) - sehr warm im Sommer, da Dachgeschosswohnung. + kein Ventilator und Klimaanlage -Kein Internet, auch wenn es auf der Website steht -Lage dafür sehr gut
