Germany, Denmark and the Netherlands share a magnificent scenic area: the Wadden Sea, which was added to the UNESCO World Heritage list in 2009. With its special flora and fauna, uncovered sandbars and culture and cultural-history on the islands and by the coast, we focus on putting this largest tidal area in the world on the map from a shared view on sustainable tourism.
From the Dutch Wadden Sea area, we are working in conjunction with three provinces (Noord-Holland, Friesland and Groningen), three provincial marketing organisations (Holland boven Amsterdam, Merk Fryslân and Marketing Groningen) and NBTC Holland Marketing to realise this through collaboration with regional entrepreneurs and a focus on the national and international travel trade.
The objective is to facilitate national and international travel trade with:
- The Wadden Sea UNESCO World Heritage site as an inspirational destination
- The options for various partnerships
- Presenting the WADDEN to travel organisations and tour operators
By joining forces, the partners of WADDEN will improve campaign options and provide travel professionals with an interesting range of ideas and options. We are looking to inspire tour operators and travel agents to include the Wadden Sea area in their travels. We are always happy to help, for ecotourism activities, customised group travels, a visit to a particular destination or a specific activity. We look forward to welcoming you.
