Dune paths and the world of tides

Dune paths and the world of tides

Beyond the island town, dune landscapes and more island paths open up. Choose a route that suits weather, daylight and your stamina. Keep to marked paths and follow signs around protected areas. Watt Welten visitor centre at the harbour helps explain the habitat between ebb and flood. Its exhibition and current nature activities offer a useful introduction before taking a closer look outdoors. Check the programme and opening hours with the centre. A guided tidal-flat walk adds first-hand observations. Check the correct meeting point when booking: it may not be at the visitor centre. A qualified guide, suitable clothing and enough time for the return make for a thoughtful encounter with the Wadden Sea.
