From Cuxhaven or Büsum is Heligoland can be reached by ferry in about two and a half hours. It takes a little longer from Bremerhaven. For the trip by ferry boat should be calculated here about three hours. A trip with the catamaran from Hamburg Wedel actually takes only about 70 minutes, but this way to reach the island is also much more expensive than the trip with the conventional ferries.
All ferries offer passengers food and drinks. For the little seafarers there is also an extensive children's offer to avoid boredom during the crossing. While the normal ferries are self-service, there is a waitress on the catamaran.
