Why travel to distant lands? Discover the expedition feeling in the North Sea when the HANSEATIC nature sets course for the Frisian Islands – with fine sandy beaches, nature reserves surrounded by mudflats and wildly romantic dunes. Experience the unique atmosphere on board the small, state-of-the-art expedition ship. You will already appreciate the many open deck areas and the deck tour at the bow from Hamburg on your evening cruise on the Elbe. Next you will be welcomed by the expanse and isolation of Texel. Discover the dreamy, idyllic town of De Koog on an island tour*. Red the rocks and rich the birdlife, especially in October: Helgoland. Up to 430 species have been recorded here – unique in central Europe. The team of experts will sharpen your eye for the great variety, which you can observe from the deck. If the weather allows, the Zodiacs will be put to use – for a pure expedition feeling and unimagined perspectives. It’s hard to believe how many stories of the north you will take with you in Hamburg.
