Good to know
The trip to the seals starts from Hörnum on Sylt and takes you directly to the impressive resting places of the seals in the Wadden Sea. These unique natural experiences, where depending on the tide you may see hundreds of seals on the sandbanks or only a few in the water, are a highlight for all age groups. During the tour a small net is lowered into the water, and the staff from the Wadden Sea Conservation Station (www.schutzstation-wattenmeer.de) provide a natural science insight into the underwater world. The animals caught during the sea creature catch are released again after the trip. This tour thus offers both entertainment and education, vividly bringing the life of the North Sea and the seals closer to you. Note: The likelihood of seeing seals on the trip is highest two hours before and two hours after low tide. Here you'll find the tide calendar.
Seal Observation: Enjoy watching seals in their natural habitat. (Please note that we cannot guarantee seal sightings as these are wild animals.) Information and explanations about the marine creatures of the North Sea.
