    The outer harbor of Harlesiel is a nice starting point for hikes to Carolinensiel.

      The Harlesiel pumping station was built between 1953 and 1957 and is the provisional conclusion of a century-long diking of the Harlebucht. Today it separates the outer and inner harbors in Harlesiel and serves to drain the Harlebucht area. At low tide, access to the Wangersiel is opened so that the Harle can drain unhindered into the Wadden Sea. Today the pumping station is controlled by an automatic measuring system, but in the past a keeper was responsible for the system. Overall, the pumping station now drains an area of 22,000 hectares of land. Ships have the opportunity to pass the pumping station through the locks.
