UNESCO-Weltnaturerbe Wattenmeer-Besucherzentrum Cuxhaven

The Wadden Sea Visitor Center has something for every desire for adventure or thirst for knowledge on three floors. Natural history tours into the mudflats, the salt marshes or the coastal heaths are offered as well as a permanent exhibition on the Wadden Sea World Heritage Site and the Cuxhaven coastal heaths.

You can explore the exhibition independently or be guided by the audio guide. The unique view from the panorama windows alone is worth a visit. The aquariums, which show the typical inhabitants of the Wadden Sea in their underwater world, are particularly interesting for the children. The whole house is barrier-free and people with walking difficulties can borrow the Wattmobil free of charge for a trip to the Watt.

The opening hours are:
01.04.-31.10. Mon-Fri 10am to 6pm, Sat + Sun 12am to 6pm
01.11.-31.03. Mon-Fri 10-16 clock, Sat closed, Sun 12-16 clock

Attention: There is no parking at the visitor center. Please use the public parking areas at Hans-Retzlaff-Straße.

Away from the crowds, it can be reasonably quiet at this beach section (without beach chairs). It is not far to the feed mile and the carriages to the island Neuwerk can be observed from here also well.

A visit to the Wadden Sea Museum is always worthwhile.

This visit is definitely worth it

nice view. heavenly peace

Here you can get extensive information about the flora and fauna of the Wadden Sea.

Interesting exhibition on the Wadden Sea World Heritage Site!

Every now and then evening film screening for free.

At sunset a great panorama

A real recommendation and it is not a detour

Very nice beach. And the mudflat invites you to hike again and again.

It's worth taking a look here.

That feeling when you have the black Schmötke on your feet. 👍

Well worth visiting.

Nice museum and close to Sahlenburg.

The new Wadden Sea visitor center is located slightly away from the big bustle of Sahlenburg directly in the dunes. Very informative with a view out to the sea.

A visit is really worthwhile

Beautiful beach with mudflats

Definitely very interesting to visit

We weren't there, but it's definitely worth it
