Wijde Waddenzee

Enjoy optimal privacy and the luxury of a hotel in the informal atmosphere of a bed & breakfast. Due to its location right on the Wadden Sea World Heritage Site and its cultural-historical value, the Wadden Fund and the European Union have contributed to the restoration.

The Wadden Experience Point in Den Oever is a viewpoint over the Wadden Sea. You can look out over the 't Schor nature reserve, the dam with the largest spoonbill colony in Europe (Vogelsandt), the former island of Wieringen, the harbor of Den Oever and the Afsluitdijk.

Den Oever is also located on the Afsluitdijk and is therefore the only village that is located on fresh and salt water. The port is located near the Afsluitdijk on the Wadden Sea side. Den Oever is a real fishing port. A section of the harbor has been set up as a tourist harbour. You can take a Wadden cruise here or go for a day of sport fishing.
