Sylt might only be 38.5 kilometres long, but it has three Michelin-starred restaurants, among around 200 places to eat — from bistros to world-class restaurants. The cuisine itself comes from all over Germany. Seafood, of course, is the real local speciality. The sand flats around the island are a superb breeding ground for shellfish, and Sylt’s oysters are considered among Europe’s finest.
