With some awesome road trip options in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to experience all that Cuxhaven, 25 miles away, has to offer. Alte Liebe, Cuxhaven Ferry Terminal and Cuxhaven Water Tower alone justify the drive out here. Situated 25 miles away, Rendsburg is another place to aim for. If you swing by, be sure to check out Rendsburg High Bridge, Christian Curch and Rendsburg Jewish Museum.
