Our modern catamaran "Halunder Jet" is the most beautiful and most simple way to get to Heligoland, Germany's only island in the high seas. Enjoy a relaxed trip on your reserved seats. Our friendly staff will take care of your comfort during the journey. We moor the ship directly in the south port of Heligoland, so the disembarkment with the small boats is avoided. Choose from two different ports of departure: you can sail either from Hamburg or Cuxhaven.
