Is there any way to reach the Neuwerk island from the German mainland?

Accepted answer

There are four hotels on the island, which you can book online, each of their websites probably has info about how to get there (seeblick-insel-neuwerk.de, husachterndiek.de, inselneuwerk.de, neuwerk-hotel.de).

The light house website (https://www.leuchtturmneuwerk.de/) also has a link to a company that ferries you there (https://www.cassen-eils.de/).

When I try google maps with 'walking' it tells me that you can walk there at low tide, but it's about 8 km.

Don't try that without a professional guide. (I've taken the liberty to edit this post because that precaution is vital. The tidal flats can change from year to year, even from month to month, and some map on your phone might lead you into a deadly maze. They have to rescue drowning people every year.)

Apparently, there is a Ferry service between Cuxhaven to Neuwerk Island: https://www.cassen-eils.de/linienverkehr/english-schedule/

Day guests frequently visit on foot through the mudflats or in one of the horse-drawn carriages, and then return to Cuxhaven on the MS β€œFlipper”.
