Your adventure begins with an early morning departure aboard a sleek, ultra-modern catamaran. Enjoy a smooth ride down the Elbe River, passing the bustling port of Cuxhaven, before gliding across the open North Sea. Onboard amenities include complimentary Wi-Fi and comfortable seating, with open-air decks for panoramic sea views.
