Graswarder is a sandspit nearby Heiligenhafen, Germany. A sandspit is a special landform found off coasts. At one end, spits connect to the beach, and extend into the sea. A spit forms because the sand on the beach is moved by the waves along the shore, and the sand collects at the end to form a spit. The process of the waves moving the sand along the shore is known as longshore drift. It is a centuries-long process.
Graswarder ist eine Nehrung, die durch die Jahrhunderte andauerndernde Anspülung von Sand entstanden ist.
