There are numerous ways to explore the wondrous world of the Dutch Wadden Sea: on foot with binoculars in hand, on two wheels or from the water.

You can attend a fascinating lecture about the region, or visit one of the many exhibitions which look ‘behind the scenes’ of this natural World Heritage Site. Mudflats walks are a must if you want to experience the Wadden Sea, you can even book a guided crossing to one of the islands.

Join one of the guided nature tours to discover the huge variety of fauna and flora and experience the majestic force of the elements! They take place every day of the year and sometimes even night.

The whole landscape of northern Friesland was formed by a struggle against the sea. Evidence of this struggle is everywhere. Take a look the old dikes at the ‘Biltdijken’ or visit the highest dwelling mound of the Netherlands in Hegebeintum.
