Seals are not that hard to find around Terschelling. The beautiful nature, the clean water, the environment and the peace and quiet have a positive influence on the seals and therefore large seal colonies live off the coast. They laze a lot on the beach and on the sandbanks where they enjoy the sun. And with a bit of luck, porpoises can be spotted from the air (The smallest type of whale that has about the size of a dolphin). A good way to spot these animals is by plane!

Texel sightseeing flight

Texel International Airport

Texel became an island in 1170 when it was separated from the mainland by the All Saints' Flood. The landscape on Texel is very different from that of the other Wadden islands. The other Wadden islands mainly consist of sand and dune areas. After the Ice Age, a thick boulder clay layer remained on Texel, making the soil much more fertile and allowing the land to develop differently. Fly with us and discover this beautiful island!

Ameland sightseeing flight

Texel International Airport

The earliest signs for the emergence of the Wadden island of Ameland arose after the last ice age. The temperature rose, the ice caps melted, the sea level rose and for our environment, it mainly meant that the North Sea advanced towards our country. Ameland consists of three islands that have grown together. The islands were connected by the construction of drift dikes in the 19th century. Fly with us to this unique island!
