The ferry's a catamaran style, so it rocks less. People prone to motion sickness may find it less annoying than 4 hours from Hamburg to the island.</p><p>Cuxhaven, and that part of northern Germany, is lovely and worth visiting for a couple days. It has a quite lovely history, and amazing summer weather. It's a quiet city, though.</p><p>Were I to attend the event, I'd travel to Hamburg, ferry to Helgoland, then ferry to Cuxhaven, then to Hamburg via train from Cuxhaven. Giving 2 to 3 days in Hamburg to really enjoy the city, and 1-2 days in Cuxhaven to relax before heading back to the grind.</p><p><a href="https://hackers.town/tags/cuxhaven" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cuxhaven</span></a> <a href="https://hackers.town/tags/hamburg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hamburg</span></a> <a href="https://hackers.town/tags/helgoland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>helgoland</span></a></p>
