Our child-friendly Schwanenhof is located right on the dike in Ostbense, about equidistant from Bensersiel, Esens, and Neuharlingersiel. The Schwanenhof is a “Gulfhof,” a typical East Frisian marsh farm that is no longer in operation.
It’s just a 2-minute walk to the dike, so you’ll never be too late to enjoy the magnificent sunset over the sea! On the dike, you’ll experience the North Sea at its most beautiful and bask in the sun and sea, along with just a few other insiders.

The meadows right next door and a small lake nearby are home to a large number of swans. Watching the swans is almost as much fun as visiting the fish in the pond in our garden.
Here with us, you’ll find your well-deserved peace and quiet. It’s about a 5-minute drive to the beach and all the spa facilities in the North Sea spa town of Neuharlingersiel, and the drive to the North Sea spa town of Bensersiel is just as short.



A vacation in Ostbense means the North Sea without the tourist crowds, featuring wonderful walks along theseashore. At the same time, the tourist centers, beaches, and swimming pools are within easy reach.
The North Sea spa town of Neuharlingersiel is a 300-year-old fishing village with an active fleet of crab fishing boats. In the beautiful historic fishing harbor, East Frisian fishing is still actively practiced today by many shrimp boats.
There’s a wide range of tourist attractions for your vacation: the beach with the fantastic “Platschi” water play area, the new, modern “BadeWerk” spa and wellness center with a seawater indoor pool and sauna facilities, as well as the Kurhaus, Kursaal, an information center with the “Leuchttürmchen” children’s playhouse, the Sielhof as a visitor center, green spaces, events, a lovingly maintained historic harbor, and much more.
Neuharlingersiel is located right in the middle of the East Frisian North Sea coast, across from the island of Spiekeroog on the mainland and slightly east of Ostbense.
To the west, in the immediate vicinity, lies Bensersiel. Bensersiel also has a lot to offer in terms of sports, recreation, and fun, including two swimming pools: the seawater wave pool with a super slide and the seawater swimming complex Nordseetherme Sonneninsel. The “Sonneninsel” is a modern, heated water park featuring North Sea water. The “Nordseetherme Sonneninsel” also houses numerous spa facilities as well as a modern wellness, sauna, and fitness center.
There are also plenty of options for your health: health-promoting classes, fitness and gymnastics classes at the Vital-Aktiv-Center; or treat yourself to a beauty day and let yourself be thoroughly pampered.
Bensersiel is located right in the middle of the East Frisian North Sea coast, across from the island of Langeoog on the mainland.
Esens, the “parlor” of the Harlingerland region, is also very close by. You can reach Esens by car, but it’s even better to take the back route through the marshlands.
The wonderful attractions of Neuharlingersiel and Bensersiel are complemented in Esens by this over 475-year-old “knight’s town” with its historically developed town center. Here you’ll find a wide variety of events—both large and small—as well as museums, restaurants, and shopping options.
