Ferries to Pellworm

Pellworm lies in the Wadden Sea south of the halligen and is the most thinly served island in this region. In the summer half-year there is usually one departure per operating day in the timetable; in winter, none.

From Hooge and Amrum

The shortest connection comes across from the Hallig Hooge - 50 minutes with the MS Adler-Express. From Amrum it is 75 minutes.

From Hörnum and Föhr

From Hörnum on Sylt the journey takes a good two hours, and from Föhr the same. The Föhr connection is sold as a through-ticket with a change of vessel, not as a direct sailing.

To Heligoland

This connection also involves a change and takes about three hours. It has the shortest timetable in the whole region: in 2026 it ends as early as 28 September, while the other Heligoland sailings run until 21 October.

The short way from Nordstrand

For arriving from the mainland the short crossing from Nordstrand is the obvious route - and the only one that also runs outside the Adler season. It is not part of the Adler-Schiffe network and therefore not on the map on this page; current departures are posted at the pier or available from the operator.
