The 'Am Dünengelände' campsite in Zempin (Usedom island) loses 3–4 meters of dune annually due to coastal erosion. Up to 70% of pitches could become inaccessible within a few years. After a petition with nearly 2,000 signatures, a meeting with officials from the Ministry of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern took place. An agreement was reached on sand replenishment, which could start as early as winter.
