Below the old captains' houses of Övelgönne lies a sandy stretch of Elbe shore where locals sit and watch container ships pass close in.
Follow the path from Neumühlen past the historic vessels of the Museumshafen, then stop at a beach kiosk or at Strandperle for a drink.
Local tip: Bus 112 to Neumühlen/Övelgönne saves the walk from Altona; ferry line 62 to Neumühlen is the scenic alternative.
