Program for the trip

We meet at the parking lot Okholmvej 5, 6760 Ribe, your guide is waiting for you at the bike parking lot.

There is a public toilet in the northeast corner of the parking lot, and we stop at better toilet facilities at Mandø.

In a group in our own cars, we drive along the Låningsvejen on the Wadden Sea Safari, safely through the Wadden Sea. In your own cars, you decide whether you want to extend your trip to Mandø, you will be guided in relation to the tide on the day in question.

We take the trip to Mandø town, and back along the dike to our starting point for the trip out to the seals, we have to walk about 3 km.

We visit the seals in their natural environment on their premises, and bring binoculars so that we can observe them from a distance.

On the trip, we explore the seabed and explore based on the impressions of the day.

We need to cross water in a single spot, and recommend footwear that is allowed to get wet and dirty, or bare feet.

The unique nature of the Wadden Sea creates strong impressions that leave an imprint on the body and soul. You will experience the Wadden Sea through your senses, so that the Wadden Sea crawls completely under your skin and creates memories you will remember for a long time.
