    Walflosse only from the air correctly recognizable! Watch flood!

      This is a very nice place to visit. Most of the national park is in the sea, but the beach hike is very nice. Just be careful to time it with the tide, as the high tide can trap you in the whale tail. In the village nearby tours can be hired to watch whales on a boat. Full recommend!

        Best to check the tides, and plan your visit accordingly.

        At high tide itself, that part of the beach becomes inaccessible.
