The North Sea island Langeoog is one of the seven East Frisian Islands and lies between the neighboring islands Baltrum in the west and Spiekeroog in the east. If you want a relaxing North Sea vacation plan, you will certainly ask yourself the question:
From where is the ferry to Langeoog?
To do this, you need to go to the ferry terminal in Bensersiel, which is a district of the small East Frisian town of Esens. The town is about 25 kilometers from the city of Norden, 23 kilometers from Aurich and about 40 kilometers from Wilhelmshaven. From the port in Bensersiel there is a tide-independent and several times a day ferry connection to Langeoog. Since the island is car-free, you can park your car in a guarded parking lot or in a garage near the ferry dock for a fee.
Four large passenger ships (Langeoog I, II, III and IV) and two cargo ferries (Onkel Otto and Pionier) are operated today by the shipping department of the island municipality of Langeoog. From the ferry port on Langeoog, tourist day trips are also operated during the season to Spiekeroog, Wangerooge or Norderney offered.
From where does the ferry leave, where does the ferry depart and where does it start ?
The ferry Langeoog departs from the following address in Bensersiel: Am Hafen, 26427 Esens. You can park in the parking lot at the harbor.
Ferries to Langeoog run regularly from Bensersiel all year round, and even more frequently during the summer high season. The trip takes about 60 minutes and offers a breathtaking view of the North Sea and the surrounding Islands. Many visitors take bicycles with them or rent them on the island to explore the many scenic trails and attractions, from historic lighthouses to nature preserves.
Besides the ferry, visitors can also reach Langeoog by plane via the island's small airport, which has regular flights from the nearby town of Harle. However, the ferry is the most popular and cheapest option for most travelers.
