Burgstaaken is the main commercial and leisure harbour on Fehmarn island, tucked into the island's southern coast with a lively mix of working fishing boats and yachts giving it a grittier, more authentic feel than polished resort marinas. The island itself is one of Germany's sunniest spots, and from here you're well placed to explore the flat, windswept landscape by bike or grab fresh fish straight off the boats. It's a solid base for sailing the western Baltic, with the Fehmarnbelt — one of the busiest shipping lanes in the world — right on your doorstep.
