Experience one of Europe's most exciting sailing areas on a varied sailing trip from Travemünde through the Kiel Canal to Cuxhaven. This route combines relaxed Baltic sailing with fascinating inland navigation and the transition to the powerful North Sea – a trip full of contrasts and maritime impressions.
We start in Travemünde, where the Baltic Sea welcomes us with open horizons and fresh sea air. After the first nautical miles we enter the Kiel Canal – one of the world's busiest artificial waterways. Here we sail (under engine) right through the heart of Schleswig-Holstein, pass through locks, observe large cargo ships at close quarters and enjoy a very special perspective on seafaring.
Beyond Brunsbüttel the North Sea opens up: tides, currents and the vast Wadden Sea now shape the scene. The final miles take us to Cuxhaven, where we round off the trip in a traditional North Sea harbour.
What awaits you:
- Varied route from the Baltic Sea via the canal to the North Sea
- Passage through the impressive Kiel Canal
- Active participation on board – you're part of the crew
- Combination of relaxed sailing and exciting navigation
- Close-up insight into commercial shipping
Who is the trip suitable for?
Ideal for beginners and crew members with initial experience who want to get to know different sailing areas. Prior knowledge is helpful but not essential. What matters is team spirit, an interest in sailing and enthusiasm for new experiences.
A trip full of variety – from peaceful Baltic miles to the maritime pulse of the North Sea.
