The Leuchtturm Sassnitz, on the German island of Rügen, offers photographers a picturesque setting with its stark contrast against the Baltic Sea backdrop. This functioning lighthouse, although not as tall or ancient as others, stands out for its location on the jagged cliffs of the Jasmund National Park, famous for the Königsstuhl chalk cliffs nearby. Ideal times for photography are during sunrise or sunset when the soft light enhances the natural beauty of the seascape and the white chalk cliffs. The lighthouse itself, with its red and white color scheme, provides a focal point against the vast blue of the sea and sky, offering a classic maritime scene. The surrounding area, with its rich biodiversity and dramatic natural landscapes, presents ample opportunities for wildlife and landscape photography. Access to the lighthouse is through a nature walk, adding an element of adventure to your visit.
