Package holiday to Cuxhaven

Cuxhaven is located at the northernmost tip of Lower Saxony, where the Elbe River flows into the North Sea, offering a maritime experience unmatched in Germany. The Kugelbake, a wooden navigation mark at the mouth of the Elbe, is the city's landmark and marks the exact point where the river meets the sea. Nowhere else in Germany can you simultaneously see the largest container ships in the world pass by, walk in the Wadden Sea, and relax on one of the widest North Sea beaches.

The Kugelbake is more than just a navigation mark - it is the emotional center of Cuxhaven and one of the most iconic coastal spots in Northern Germany. From the observation platform, you can watch the unceasing ballet of ships at the Elbe estuary: gigantic container freighters, elegant cruise ships, and small fishing boats pass by in an endless stream just a few hundred meters away. At sunset, when the silhouettes of the ships glide against the glowing red sky, the sight is unforgettable.

The beach of Duhnen, Cuxhaven's most upscale district, stretches wide and sandy along the North Sea and offers beach chairs, water sports, and a modern promenade. The beach of Döse, further east, is more family-friendly and transitions directly into the Wadden Sea. The Wadden Sea off Cuxhaven, part of the UNESCO World Heritage, is one of the most significant tidal biotopes in the world and can be explored on guided walks to the island of Neuwerk - a seven-kilometer hike through the mudflats, which is among the most unforgettable natural experiences in Northern Germany.

The wreck and fishing museum Windstärke 10 in the old fish packing house is one of the best maritime museums in Northern Germany. The Alte Liebe, a historic ship landing stage, is now a popular observation platform for ship watchers. Ferries to Helgoland, Germany's only offshore island, depart from Cuxhaven.

Cuxhaven is accessible from Hamburg by car in about one and a half hours or conveniently by train. The city offers a mix of holiday home settlements, hotels, and guesthouses for every taste and budget.

Cuxhaven particularly impresses with stunning beaches, breathtaking nature, family-friendly offers, first-class relaxation options. As a package holiday destination, you benefit from attractive all-inclusive packages with flights, hotels, and often transfers – all at a fixed price and fully secured.
