Emmerich Marina Webcam

To get to the closest coastline from Emmerich you’d need to travel quite a distance. Not being close to the sea though is not something that deters the sailors of this town in north-west Germany.

The River Rhine flows through Emmerich and that’s a waterway the local boat lovers make good use of. When they set out from the tranquil moorings of this marina in Emmerich to go cruising they haven’t got far to navigate before they’re crossing the border and heading into Holland.

Is there much to see on the way? Not really. Unless they head in the opposite direction and sail under the Rhine Bridge, Germany’s longest suspension bridge, it’ll be green river banks and maybe the odd paddling duck or two all the way.
