What it is

From the sea you grasp the size of the cliffs: a white wall beneath the beech forest, kilometre after kilometre, with the Königsstuhl in the middle. The Adler-Schiffe shipping company runs the trip from the port of Sassnitz and from the piers of the resorts of Binz, Sellin and Göhren.

How it works

From Sassnitz the boat leaves from the town's harbour, at Hafenstraße 12, behind the submarine museum. Depending on the departure point, it lasts between an hour and a half and three and a half hours. Tickets are bought online or at the quay. The national park centre sells a combined boat and Königsstuhl ticket.
