About Fishermen's Festival Zempin

The Zempin Fishermen's Festival celebrates the fishing and coastal tradition of Usedom Island. On the spa square of Usedom's smallest seaside resort, freshly caught specialties from the Baltic Sea and the Achterwasser (the calm lagoon waters behind the island) are combined with a colorful family program. Dance groups from the Zempin association for young and old, live music, and a maritime market create a lively atmosphere, while children's activities enrich the afternoon. A atmospheric, free-entry festival that keeps Zempin's close connection to the sea and its fishing tradition alive.

Festival of Fishing Tradition

The Zempin Fishermen's Festival honors the centuries-old fishing and coastal tradition of Usedom Island. The venue is the Kurplatz (spa square) in Zempin, the smallest of Usedom's seaside resorts. The festival is organized by the Usedomer Bernsteinbäder (Amber Baths); admission is free.

Freshly Caught Specialties

The focus is on freshly caught specialties from the Baltic Sea and the Achterwasser – the calm lagoon waters behind the island. Smoked and fried fish, fish rolls, and other delicacies recall the times when Zempin lived from fishing. A maritime market completes the culinary offerings.

Program for the Whole Family

The Fishermen's Festival offers a diverse family program: dance groups from the Zempiner Verein für Groß und Klein e.V. (Zempin Association for Young and Old) perform, live music provides entertainment, and there are attractions and hands-on activities for the youngest visitors. The festival is open from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.

Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Vorpommern-Greifswald

Zempin is located between Zinnowitz and Koserow in the narrowest part of Usedom Island, in the Vorpommern-Greifswald district. As the island's smallest seaside resort, Zempin retains a particularly quiet, original character – the Fishermen's Festival reflects this close connection between the town and the sea.
