Waastwinj is the West Wind.



But i'm so much more than that.

I'm your eager anticipation before a trip across the Wadden Sea. The salty breeze from the sea, the cry of seagulls, the ebb and flow of the waves. Your holiday begins the moment you step on board. Westward. Into a new world, a new era without hustle and bustle, but plenty of space for you and your thoughts.

I’m what you need.

A place of rest and relaxation. A place to charge your batteries. Healthy air all around you. Take a deep breath and let go. Carpe diem. No appointments, no deadlines, no stress. I'm nature itself, and I will surprise you with new perspectives on life. With wide-open spaces like you've never seen. Charge up on freedom and strength with every gust that blows your way from across the sea. Free your mind. For the really important things in life. I am your holiday.

Fair. Pure. Good. Sustainable.

I'm your holiday without the fuss. But I'm sustainable and fair. In harmony with nature, the environment and climate. I save valuable resources. I proudly wear my Viabono certification. I respect my team and support the Wadden Sea National Park. I want to see my island stay the way it is for a long time yet – authentic. Simply Föhr.

Warm. Friendly. Friesian.

The Hennig family has been running me for 60 years—and since 2025, the third generation has been at the helm with Tim Hennig.
Like his father and grandmother before him, he was born on the island. Together with his sister Jara, his grandfather Heinz, and his team, they look after you and your stay—ensuring you feel at home, look back on your time here fondly, and come back again.
