“A secluded haven?” you might wonder, gazing across the Oder. Here at Oststrand in Frankfurt (Oder), the river whispers secrets of a hidden history. Oststrand isn’t just a beach. It’s a designated FKK area, a place where the constraints of clothing are shed alongside the worries of the world. The Oder, the fourth largest river in Germany and a vital waterway connecting Poland and Germany, flows past this unique sanctuary.
