Cast off for a real Wadden Sea adventure! This extensive tour of the Wadden Sea takes you from Norddeich through the Wadden Sea and across the North Sea – with possible stops on the East and West Frisian islands, depending on wind and tides. No experience is required: perfect for nature lovers, adventurers and anyone who wants to completely escape the daily hustle and bustle!

The Pegasus is an authentic flat-bottomed ship specially built for this region. In suitable weather, the ship can go dry on the mud flats. It is stopped on a sandbank after high tide, after which the water flows away with the ebb and the ship comes dry on the seabed. Then you can step off board and take a short mudflat walk. Don’t miss this unique experience!

The first few days we sail through the Wadden Sea, past the East Frisian islands. Depending on wind and weather, we might dock at Borkum, Juist or Norderney. On each island you will find miles of beaches, pristine dunes and perhaps a delightful walk through the quiet, expansive landscape. For those who prefer to stay on board, this is the perfect time to feel the wind in your sails and clear your head completely.

Wind and weather permitting, we set sail west and visit the Dutch Wadden Islands – Schiermonnikoog, Ameland or Terschelling are on the schedule. Here you can learn about typical Dutch island culture, discover small villages or settle down at a cozy harbor cafe. The West Frisian islands also offer beautiful beaches and unspoiled nature. And who knows, you might even spot a few seals sunbathing on the sandbanks!

After a week full of sea air, sunshine (hopefully) and lots of adventure, we set sail back to Norddeich.

Children’s prices up to 12 years. 10% discount for schoolchildren and students on request.

Frequently asked questions

We still handle your bookings personally and therefore do not have an automatic booking system. This way, we can enable you to reserve individual places for a few days without any obligation. This allows you, for example, to arrange your holiday without someone stealing your place from under your nose. For this reason, we cannot keep track of the exact number of free places on a daily basis. However, we regularly check the availability of our sailing holidays. Therefore, you can generally assume that plenty of free places are still available on all trips that are not marked as ‘fully booked’ or ‘Last Minute’. Call us or use our booking form if you want to know the exact number of places available.

If you are travelling alone and have not booked a private cabin, you will be accommodated in a shared cabin. Shared cabins are normally divided by gender. Only on the Belle Amie and Seatrips Yachts do they sometimes have mixed cabins.

Yes, vegetarians and allergies/intolerances can be catered for on most ships. However, there is only one menu per day on the programme. Therefore, please let us know during your booking if you have any special dietary requirements.

In principle, all our trips are suitable for both experienced and novice sailors. The professional crew on board will teach you everything you need to know. In some cases (e.g. on Atlantic crossings) initial sailing experience may be an advantage/requirement. In this case, this will be clearly indicated in the cruise description.
