Recreation & Leisure - Best Western Hotel Das Donners

Worth knowing

Cuxhaven is the gateway to the world right after Hamburg. Of course, here at the North Sea, water sports are very important: sailing, surfing and swimming (about 10 km of grass and sandy beaches). But the diversity of the unique landscape around Cuxhaven also invites you to cycle, go for a walk or to a small car tour in the Cuxland. For example, explore the endless expanse of the Wadden Sea, dunes and dykes, quiet salt marshes, enchanting moors and geest, romantic heath or even the interesting harbor facilities. Cuxhaven offers visitors many interesting museums (Aeronauticum, Wrackmuseeum, Ritzebüttel Castle, Ringelnatzmuseum, Fort Kugelbake) and for the evening a variety of theater and concert events. Cuxhaven is the ideal starting point for boat trips to the islands of Neuwerk and Helgoland. Among the most original excursions Cuxhaven counts the Wattwagenfahrt: with a high-wheeled horse-drawn carriage you can drive at low tide through the Watt (UNESCO world natural Wadden Sea or Lower Saxony national park Wadden Sea) to the island Neuwerk. Spring, summer, autumn and winter - Cuxhaven is an experience in all seasons.
