On this trip, the North Sea shows itself from its most beautiful side. You start in Emden and first drive along the coast of East Friesland. Here you can experience a wide, rustic landscape by the sea, the Lower Saxony Wadden Sea National Park and East Frisian culture and sights during beautiful bike tours. Of course, the North Sea lures you to go for walks on the beach and sometimes to swim. And in Bremerhaven, it presents itself with fascinating port facilities and giant ships. Your destination is the North Sea spa town of Cuxhaven with attractive beaches, fishing ports and a possible trip to the island of Neuwerk. Experience wonderful days by the sea.

With its 3 ports, Carolinensiel-Harlesiel is unique on the East Frisian North Sea coast. The museum harbor with the historic flat-bottomed sailing ships and the wide range of gastronomic offers not only fascinates guests and locals in summer.
