Expeditie Waddenzee - Boat Trip

With Expeditie Waddenzee you board a boat in Nes on Ameland for a trip across the Wadden Sea. You spot seals on the sandbanks and discover what lives beneath the water.
What can you expect at Expeditie Waddenzee?
- Seal spotting: The boat sails to the sandbanks, where you can see seals up close. Feel free to bring binoculars.
- Fishing with a trawl net: During the trip a trawl net is put out. On the aft deck you take a look at the catch, such as shore crabs, starfish, shrimps and various fish. The crew tells you all about it.
- Back into the sea: Afterwards the catch goes back into the water, and children are welcome to lend a hand.
- Guided trips too: There are also guided trips that include a visit to a shell bank, as well as packages for groups.
