Beachcombing amber?

Question

Where can I find amber beachcombing in Germany?

Answer 1

Amber is found along the Baltic coastline of Germany Poland and Russia. The best areas are in the Russian section. Go looking at low tide and after a period of strong waves for your best chance.

Answer 2

Several "amber roads" connected the North Sea (Nordsee) and East Sea (Ostsee), especially the city of Ambur (now Hamburg) to the Brenner Pass ("Burner"-pass), proceeding southwards to Brindisi (Brundisium) in Italy and Ambracia (Greece).
