About List on Sylt
List is the northernmost town in Germany and is located at the northern tip of Sylt, surrounded by the shifting dunes of the Listland. The harbor is the starting point for ferry connections to Denmark and seal safaris. The Lister Ellenbogen — a private dune landscape — is one of the wildest and loneliest beaches in Germany. The Sylter Royal oysters are cultivated in the Lister oyster beds directly off the coast.
