Camping on the Baltic Sea gets more expensive – tourists keep coming

The average nightly rate at campsites on the Fischland-Darß-Zingst peninsula (Mecklenburg-Vorpommern) has risen to €48, or about €53 including the visitor's tax. According to a Pincamp analysis, prices in the region increased by 9%, with seaside spots up to 18% higher. The most expensive site is Naturdüne Camping Resort Zingst at €61.50 per night. Key drivers are a 40% rise in the minimum wage since 2022 and higher energy costs. Despite this, one in eleven tourist overnight stays in Germany is at a campsite, and the national average of €41 remains cheaper than Croatia (€73) or Italy (€63).

Camping in Lower Saxony hits record: 44.7 million overnight stays in 2025

The operator of the 'Rühler Schweiz' campsite in Bodenwerder reported a 30% increase in guests compared to 2024. According to an analysis by the booking portal Pincamp (ADAC), demand is shifting to cooler regions in Germany due to heat in Southern Europe. A trend toward 'glamping' — camping with high comfort levels — is also noted.
