About this school trip

The Wadden Sea is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the largest tidal area in the world. A mudflat excursion is therefore a unique lesson in tides and ecology: your pupils walk across the seabed, through a landscape that exists nowhere else. Along the way they discover the creatures that live on the mudflats and understand why this area is so special. Mudflat walking is even listed as part of the Netherlands' intangible cultural heritage.

The mudflats change by the hour, and wind, visibility and ground conditions can work for you or against you. That is why a mudflat excursion always takes place under the guidance of a certified guide who knows the tides and chooses a safe route. The guide should be booked well in advance (we are happy to help), and pupils need suitable clothing and sturdy footwear. On islands such as Texel and Vlieland, the excursion is easy to combine with a boat trip.

We are happy to take care of transport to the ferry port or the starting point of the excursion for you and your pupils. Our experienced driver makes sure your group arrives safely, comfortably and on time.
