    Seal Sanctuary
    By no means all seals found on the beach need help. Pups often have their mothers nearby, and adults sometimes simply rest. Ecomare takes in seals that wouldn't be able to survive on their own: pups that have lost their mothers and aren't yet able to care for themselves, and seals weakened by illness. Once nursed back to health, they are released onto the Texel beach or a sandbank in the Wadden Sea.


    Ecomare also has permanent residents, such as older seals that are blind and therefore can no longer be released.

      Ecomare alone makes it worth going to Texel.
