Car Hire in Eckernforde - Mini guide to Eckernforde

The small city of Eckernförde on the Baltic Sea has long been a popular holiday destination among residents of northern Germany. Today, Eckernförde has also started to receive many visitors from other parts of the world thanks to its beautiful beaches, relaxed atmosphere, and the ease with which visitors can find car hire in Eckernförde.

Car rental in Eckernförde is especially recommended since the closest larger city, Kiel, is quite a distance away by public transportation and the surrounding area has so much to see. The local company of Ipsen and the internationally reputable car hire agencies Sixt and Europcar all provide cheap car hire in Eckernförde.

The six kilometres of fine white sandy beach along Eckernförde Bay is the city's main tourist attraction. Whether visitors want to surf, sail, boat, play beach volleyball, or wade in the Baltic Sea's shallow waters, Eckernförde's beach has something for everyone. The beach area even includes miniature golf and giant chess.

Strolling along the quaint shops, narrow streets, and historic buildings of Eckernförde's old town is like walking back in time. The Bonbonkocherei candy shop is worth a special visit, especially for those with a sweet tooth. Eckernförde's port is usually filled with fishermen at work or sailors at play, with a colourful fish market open to the public each first Sunday of every month.

Other Eckernförde attractions well worth visiting include the squirrel station where squirrels are kept until they can be returned to the wild, the indoor Meerwasserwellenbad pool where visitors can swim and enjoy views of the beach even during rainy weather, the marine aquarium filled with rare fish at the Baltic Sea Information Centre, and one of Germany's biggest natural high wire parks.
