Blauort
Blauort is one of Germany's uninhabited
According to the Schleswig-Holstein National Park Office in Tönning, Blauort, like the sandbank of Tertius to the south, belongs to the parish of Hedwigenkoog. However, the state government of Schleswig-Holstein has not yet officially confirmed and authorised this.
The islet of Blauort is migrating steadily eastwards, like all sandy islands on the west coast of Schleswig-Holstein. From 1938 to 1962, the sand moved towards the land at a rate of about 32 metres per year
Blauort is marked by a daymark, the Blauortbake ("Blauort daymark"). In the summer months, guided mudflat walks of the Blauortsand are offered which depart from Büsum and Wesselburen.
The Büsumer writer, Stefanie Bach Stein, called one of her books of poetry Blauort.
