FKK Sharks - Darmstadt

The VIA train leaves only on alternate hours. Thus if your timing does not fit, much time will be wasted. Also, the last VIA train back is at 2212. If it rains, you will be soaked as there are no taxis at Darmstadt Nord; happened to me twice already!

The regional train leaves only once per hour. It is supposed to take 17/18 minutes, but the return trip sometimes takes 25 minutes as it either starts late or gets stuck at Langen. The S-bahn has 2 services per hour and takes about 35 minutes. Therefore, I normally just decide on the spot which one can get me there earlier. Often it is the S-bahn as it is more frequent.

But having said all that, it could be academic as I recall seeing signs that the S-bahn tunnel on central Frankfurt will be closed for works again until mid August.

[/QUOTE]I used to think the VIA train ran only alternate hours as well, but if you check the DB " Abfarht Fahrplan" or whatever (the yellow Departure schedule) in the Frankfurt Hbf it does run consecutive hours during peak times on weekdays. The last train towards Darmstadt Nord: 21.25. As for rain: I love rain, but if I don't want to get soaked I take the unusual step of wearing a rain coat (I never carry an umbrella!) I must say, I love the walk to Fight Club Tempel!

I've used the RB to Darmstadt Hbf too, but as you say it is prone to delay and at the end of the line, you need a taxi to Sharks.

Is there way can hire a car and drive around, I am just looking options to have the car to explore but never drive in Frankfurt, can someone please give the options which is cheap and viable, I have three days plan to stay and, wants to explore sharks and oase but not sure what other options to cover in three full days. BTW first time to Frankfurt.

Cheers.

Cheers.[/QUOTE]You can refer to my past trip to Sharks by public transportation. It is cheaper and more reliable. But I suggest you come early.

Date: 3 Jun 2016 Fri.

Time: 15:00 to 21:30.

Entry fee: 65 euro.

Transport: By rail and walk.

To Sharks.

Take RB15357 to Darmstadt Hbf (around 20 mins) from Frankfurt (Main) Hbf (once per HR), 8. 25 EURO.

Next take RB15727 to Darmstadt Nord (around 5 minutes), 2.1 EURO.

And then walk 15 minutes.

Back Frankfurt.

Take last train 22:22 RB15736 to Darmstadt from Darmstadt Nord (around 5 minutes) and then take 22:35 S3 back Frankfurt (around 40 minutes).

Good luck!

Also, the 22.12 that I quoted was for the last train back, as I did not think that one would want to go to Sharks by public transport late at night at a time when some girls would already be departing.

Cheers.[/QUOTE]Are you asking how to rent a car?

If you have a car, it is worth the cost difference, if there is even any, by paying you back in time saved and freedom to go anywhere in a split second. The only thing that is hard is if you arrive at Sharks after 5 pm. My recent 7 day rental will be 150€ rental plus 90 E gas.

Also, the S3 is now blocked by tunnel works and will not bring you to Hbf area; only up to Frankfurt Sud.

[QUOTE=Pistons;1913113]- Artemis Susie from 2-3 years ago is now at Sharks by the way (its Liz at Sharks) She used to be pretty well known here on the forum.[/QUOTE]Blond, blue eyes, Liz. De, worked at GT on summer 2013, Sharks on summer 2014 and this summer. Smiling, sweet girl, many rooms at GT, but not attracted anymore, even she remembers a lot.

No need to pay extra to go from Darmstadt main station to Darmstadt-Nord!
The way from Darmstadt-Nord to Sharks is described in detail in this video on YouTube:

More people have probably mentionned this before, but never done a Sharks / Oase comparison on the gardens. Takedown mentions it, but I can add a few things to what he wrote:

- Sharks has more of a chinese garden feel to it. (Ever been to chinese garden in Singapore? Really well done, and it kinda made me start loving the clubs facilities (alongside that fancy steamroom). And the feng shui is high in the garden. Counter to the bad feng shui indoors with the couches.

- Oase however is for the active guys. 2 table tennis board, the football goal with the 2 holes in it, basketball, and they even have a volleyball net, although I've never seen anyone play volleyball there. The shrine at the top near the house is also a place to feel like you are at the top of the world. Half way to Pantheon.

- Pools are equal in my mind. Perhaps warmer at Oase, but more intimate at sharks. Draw on this. Although I do enjoy the beds at the far left at Oase on a very sunny day. Sharks has nothing like those... except for the tents where you cant get much sun...

The outside 'rooms', huts or what you call them are nicer at sharks than at oase. Although just a bad version of the GT cabins. At both clubs you do your thing indoors. Or better yet, by the side of the pool (if anyone dares) (or at the oase shrine).

Overall Sharks outside area wins. But only as long as the clientelle is lazy, and not into playing sports. Which they unfortunately mostly are...

[/QUOTE]Oase has the best outdoor pool of all clubs I have visited. Big. Clean. Fresh water. Stainless steel all around. And showers next to the pool seem to have the effect that more people shower before using the pool than at Sharks, where the showers are further away.

HB.

Oase girls always use towels to wrap up their bodies in the garden. LOL.

I plan to visit Shark this Saturday. However I need to catch flight to London at 6 pm. I'd like to bring my luggage with me in order to save time. But I am not sure if there is a left-luggage room to store my suitcase in Sharks. Anyone has similar experience to share?

Thanks

Most sharks girls use towels too. Unless it is very hot. But I think the main difference there is that the girls come much more up close at Sharks. Oase garden is too big, so its harder to look at them that well. And you are right to some degree that the girls stay more indoors at Oase. But just by a small degree. If the weather is warm enough, they tend to go outside there as well.

However, Sharks garden is much more used at night time in addition to during the day. Oase garden is pretty strictly a daytime thing...

Made a quick visit to Sharks over the weekend. I won't go into details as girls read the report nowadays. Went with my usual:

[B]Ester[/B], the room with her, lately, are always passionate and probably one of the best I've had. I have tally up all the stats and I have been in the room with her more than anyone now.

[B]Megan[/B], though she claimed that she added 3 kg, from 50 to 53, she still looks good. She's going back on vacation soon.

[B]Cosmina[/B] I have to add some details here. Some of you said she's "fat". I know she was very skinny when she started but I think she looks very good now. If you have not seen her before you would think she looks normal. She was dancing on the pole late at night and the whole club STOP what they were doing and just watching her. Now when I hear this song, [URL]https://youtu.be/7ON0iKXVUPw[/URL], I will always remember her dance.

She was great in the room and have quickly become one of my favorite now. I didn't know who Evita was (eventhough Sirioja pointed her to me, once, but from her back) and she showed me her picture on the phone. Highly recommend.

[B]Tatiana[/B] I wanted to grab her a few times but she was always talking to a customer for a while and disappeared in the room for the very long time. Will have to catch her next time.

Also went with [B]Lavinia[/B] (ex Oase), ROM, tall skinny blonde, and [B]Anabell?[/B] Tall skinny blonde also but from Bulgaria, 27. They were both good but I have my favorites at Sharks.
