Candle swimming in the wave pool by the sea

The real Lichterschwimmen in Bad Zwischenahn

Sea of Lights at the Bad Zwischenahner Wave Pool

As the days grow shorter, the wave pool by the sea transforms into a charming oasis of light. Gentle music, sparkling illuminations, and hundreds of candles create a unique atmosphere for peace and relaxation. A highlight under the open sky: In the 32-degree warm outdoor saltwater pool with North Sea salt, guests enjoy soothing warmth and the sight of the glowing winter sky – a true experience for body and soul. During the event, the Café am Rosengarten will be open, offering hot drinks, snacks, and sweet treats.
