Cuxhaven

Cuxhaven occupies the western bank of the Elbe estuary on Germany’s North Sea coast in Lower Saxony. The town faces the tidal flats of the Wadden Sea, where the sea withdraws twice daily to expose broad expanses of sand and mud. The nearby Lower Saxon Wadden Sea National Park forms part of the UNESCO-listed Wadden Sea World Heritage Site. Maritime identity shapes the waterfront: the historic Alte Liebe pier is a familiar place to watch shipping on the Elbe, while the wooden Kugelbake seamark stands near the meeting point of river and sea.
