About the Dagebüll – Wittdün (Amrum) crossing
Two quite different crossings share this route number. Most sailings from Dagebüll call at Föhr on the way and take two hours to Wittdün; a handful run direct across the Norderaue and do it in 90 minutes. In summer the direct boats leave at 13:00 daily, 14:05 on Fridays and 16:30 at weekends — worth checking before you book, because the difference is half an hour of your day.
There are ten departures a day in high summer, six in spring and autumn and five in November and early December. The first leaves at 05:00, which is a freight sailing that happens to take passengers.
An adult single is €14.40, a return €22.80, and a bicycle €13.00 return. Amrum's draw is the Kniepsand — a sand flat wider than the island itself in places — the dunes behind it, and the tallest lighthouse on the German North Sea coast. The island bus starts from the harbour at Wittdün.
