Germany
Heidelberg is a German city of 143,345 people. It is served by Heidelberg Airport (HDB), which is the named airport for travellers arriving by air.
Heidelberg is not a beach-focused destination. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so trips here are better planned around the city itself rather than the nearby coast.
