    WELCOME TO DUHNEN

    Welcome to your vacation!

    In Cuxhaven you will find a unique maritime flair, miles of beaches, the fascinating Wadden Sea, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and much more...

    Walk along the beach and let the sun shine on your nose. Try out new sports or a mud pack at the Thalasso Center ahoi!.

    Find out what all crawls and creeps in the mud on a mudflat hike.

      Cuxhaven (Duhnen) is a beach with a promenade, perfect for sunbathing, walking/hiking, and swimming (at high tide). It's part of the UNESCO World Heritage Wadden Sea and offers many recreational opportunities such as mudflat hiking, beach volleyball, and the unique Duhnen mudflat races. The beach also features restaurants, shops, and a nudist area.

      Activities on the beach:

      Sunbathing in a beach chair or strolling along the long promenade.

      Water sports and games. There are beach volleyball courts and shallow water for swimming.

      At low tide, you can walk far out into the mudflats or participate in guided mudflat hikes. The Duhnen mudflat races, where horses race on the seabed, are a special event here in Duhnen. The nearby ahoi! Thalasso Center offers treatments using seawater and mud. A fitness studio has also been located at ahoi! for some time.

            A beautiful photo motif on the dam shows where you are:
            The rural community of Duhnen was incorporated into the city of Cuxhaven in 1935.

              We had a lovely hike in Duhnen today. Even in the fog, it was a beautiful hike 👍🏻. We were all smiles, just like the locals 😉😃. The tourists we met were also in good spirits. For those who aren't so mobile, the Jan-Cuxhaven beach train offers a nice ride and a great way to explore Duhnen. A visit is highly recommended 👍🏻.

                Duhnen is Cuxhaven's most famous seaside resort.

                Founded in 1902 from a fishing village, Duhnen is now Cuxhaven's most famous seaside resort. From luxury hotels to campsites, and from Michelin-starred restaurants to snack bars, all your holiday wishes can be fulfilled here.

                Sunbathing on the beach, walks along the sea, hikes in the mudflats, strolling along the beach promenade, leisure activities at the adventure golf course and the playground at the Duhnen roundabout, horse racing on the seabed, enjoying culinary delights from the kitchen and cellar, walks in every season – that's Duhnen. Simply the refined and wonderful way to enjoy life.

                As early as 1904, Duhnen was a popular seaside resort for its guests. In summer, clothing-optional bathing is also permitted on the designated nudist beach in Duhnen.

                    A place where you can do a variety of activities. From hiking, swimming, cycling or just lazing around on the beach watching beach handball or beach volleyball.

                        The lettering seems to have moved a bit and is currently (out of season) next to the mini golf course at Badhotel Sternhagen
