Rügen, Germany's largest island, offers something for every taste and season: It enchants with picturesque and dreamy fishing villages, seemingly endless, fine sandy beaches or wildly romantic natural beaches, secluded bays, and the rugged, rocky cliffs. There's an upside-down house to discover, the Colossus of Prora, enchanted gardens, and interesting museums. And incidentally, Rügen and Hiddensee have held the best weather records for years: According to current measurements by the German Meteorological Service, the sun shines here for around 2,168 hours a year.
