Cuxhaven
A cozy seaside town lies where the Elbe flows into the North Sea.
Wide sandy beaches gently slope down to the water.
At low tide, the sea retreats, revealing vast sandy and muddy tidal flats.
This unique natural area is known as the Wadden Sea.
You can take unusual walks across the exposed seabed.
Tides alternate approximately every six hours.
In just one hour, the water level drops noticeably before your eyes.
Now you can walk up to the buoys that were still floating in the water just a short while ago.
Kugelbake is a historic navigation marker and a symbol of the city.
From here, you can enjoy beautiful views of passing ships and the vast expanse of the North Sea.
From Cuxhaven, you can take a boat trip to the seal banks.
The boat keeps a safe distance, allowing you to observe the animals in their natural habitat.
The day on the North Sea coast comes to an end, bathing the sky and water in the soft light of sunset.
And so our journey through Cuxhaven comes to an end — a city of sea, wind, and endless horizons.
