✨ AI-Enhanced Insights
Heringsdorf Airport (HDF/EDAH) is a seasonal regional airport on the island of Usedom in Zirchow, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany, close to the Polish border and the seaside resort of Heringsdorf. It has roots as a military airfield and now handles seasonal leisure flights, mainly from German and European cities, serving the Baltic coast and nearby Świnoujście. Its compact terminal and 2,300-meter runway make it a convenient gateway for beach holidays on Usedom.
💡 Local Tip
Because the airport straddles the German-Polish border area, frequent visitors often use it as a convenient gateway to both Usedom and Świnoujście; carry your passport or ID if crossing into Poland, and allow extra time for border-area bus or bike connections.
🚖 Getting There
The airport sits on the B110 near Zirchow, about 10 km from Heringsdorf and close to the Polish border at Świnoujście. Local buses connect the terminal with Heringsdorf and other Usedom resorts, but service is limited, especially outside summer, so check timetables in advance. Taxis and rental cars are available; by car, the B110 and A20 provide straightforward access to the island and mainland.
