UNESCO World Heritage Wadden Sea

Breathtaking, wherever you are in the Wadden area. The colours in the sky, the tides, the mudflats, the sea; almost otherworldly. And to think that this area is indispensable to the world’s ecology. This is where you truly land. When the wind lashes against your face during a winter walk on the dyke, or when you're crouched down finding the most beautiful oyster shells. When your kite nearly lifts you off the ground, or the mudflats almost refuse to let go of you during a mudflat hiking tour. Welcome to the North Frisian coast of the Wadden, part of the Wadden Sea UNESCO World Heritage

“ I land in the place where the world lies at my feet. And where the day begins. ”

Sometimes they are dry, and a variety of plants grow and bloom. Sometimes everything is submerged: the salt marshes of the Wadden coast.

Looking for adventure on the mudflats

You don’t need to go to the ends of the Earth to find adventure. Sometimes, the edge of the land is far enough. But, is the Wadden coast really the end of the land? Or is it actually the place where the adventure begins?

Sense of place

Making the invisible visible; with this idea, Sense of Place was created. But not just visible. Beautiful, grand (art) objects are connected to the landscape in every way and also reveal something about what time and humans do to the mudflats.
