Wadden Ferries from Texel to Fanø.
Explore the connections across the Wadden Sea.

The Wadden Islands, stretching from Texel in the Netherlands to Fanø in Denmark, are connected to the mainland by an extensive network of ferries. These Wadden ferries, or Nordsee fähren in German, are more than just transportation. They are lifelines that carry residents, visitors, and supplies across tidal channels. From the iconic TESO ferry to Texel to the quiet crossings to Denmark’s Fanø, each ferry offers a unique glimpse into the culture and natural beauty of the Wadden Sea region. This page lists almost all Wadden ferries of the last 25 years in photos and historical dates.
