Wetland at Tüskendörsee

Be sure to go to the top of the dike! So you have a great view on both sides: salt marshes and mudflats + Tüskendörsee

Borkum Fishing Club Angling Pond
Highlight • Lake
Right here is another water puncture to the fishing club/pond.
Before the new dyke was built 100 years ago, ships used to sail here close to the town of Borkum.
Today's ferry port with its dam was built much later😉
