At the salt marshes

Salt marshes absorb a large part of the wave energy during storm surges, thereby relieving the dike and increasing safety.

The salt marshes of St. Peter-Ording are a strictly protected habitat for around 50 species of birds and almost 2000 species of insects and beetles. Here they can nest, breed and live in peace. If you are interested in ornithology, then a guided tour through the salt marshes would be just the thing for you. You can observe the many different animals and plants in their special habitat very closely and also watch the birds breeding. Of course, you have to be very quiet so as not to disturb the natural silence and untouched nature.

Protected salt marshes with lots of birds and pure nature.
