Juist

Juist is one of the East Frisian Islands, in the northwest part of Lower Saxony in Germany. Although it's the longest of the islands at 17 km, it's not the largest. Juist is car-free; people move around the island on foot, by bike, or by carriage.

Understand

Juist Island

Juist is a 17-km-long and less than 500-m-wide island located east of Borkum and west of Norderney. All three islands were probably part of the island of Bant, which was broken up by a storm surge in the 12th century. The wide sandy beach with dunes lies to the north, while the mudflats with salt marshes lie to the south of the island.
