Neuwerk is characterized by its nature and tranquil surroundings. The small island offers a variety of leisure activities in a relaxed atmosphere.

Mudflat walks, amber and seals...

We recommend a mudflat hike: at low tide, you can explore the seabed of this UNESCO World Heritage Site: Discover small creatures, collect shells or amber - a hike with many possibilities! Of course, professionally guided mudflat walks are also possible. Fun for young and old: building mudflat castles!

If you are more interested in seals, the symbolic animal of the north, you can visit one of the seal banks and observe the animals, which can grow up to 1.70 meters tall, in their natural environment. And who knows? You might even spot harbor porpoises, white-beaked dolphins or even sperm whales.

If you want to see the island from a different perspective, you should take a ride in a horse-drawn carriage or on horseback.

Those who prefer peace and quiet can simply go for a walk or visit the "Cemetery of the Nameless".
