Great cruise to the seals and the Westkop with the Brandaris

The old motor lifeboat Brandaris sails around the Westpunt of the island and to the sandbanks where seals and seabirds live. The boat trip lasts over 2 hours and shows the workings of nature on the west side of the island. It is the area where many shipwrecks have occurred in previous centuries. The sandbanks are constantly moving. It is the domain of seals and seabirds. The image does change with the season and daily with the tide. Seals are almost always there, dozens, hundreds and sometimes even a thousand. The boat trip lasts 2 hours.

Een prachtige tocht naar de zeehonden

Prachtig om de zeehonden en Terschelling vanaf de Noordzee te zien op een reddingsboot met een rijke geschiedenis

Enthousiaste bemanning, prachtige boottocht naar de Zeehonden.

Mooi om Terschelling vanaf het water te zien.

Fantastische tocht!

Supermooie tocht, waar de bemanning alle tijd neemt om gepassioneerd te vertellen over Terschelling, de zeehonden en het waddengebied. Je komt heel dichtbij de zeehonden en kunt ze dus heel goed zien. Er kunnen niet veel mensen aan boord, maar daardoor is er veel ruimte en aandacht! En er werd zelfs koffie geserveerd!

Museumreddingboot Terschelling

The Foundation for the Preservation of the Oldest Motor Lifeboat in the World was established in 2003 to protect the former motor lifeboat Jhr. mr. J.W.H. Rutgers van Rozenburg to be purchased and restored. This ship had been converted into a pleasure yacht and is hardly recognizable as a lifeboat. Within a year, this boat was restored to its original condition with the help of many. At the same time, a museum jetty was constructed in the harbor of West Terschelling, where the 'Rutgers' was given a permanent berth. For example, one can now see the oldest and the newest lifeboats together in a harbor: a rich piece of history.
