Wadden Sea National Park, Coastal national park in western Jutland, Denmark.

Wadden Sea National Park encompasses 1466 square kilometers, including three islands and extensive salt marshes along the Danish North Sea coast.

The park, established in 2010, received UNESCO World Heritage status in 2014 for its ecological importance and natural preservation efforts.

Local communities maintain traditional fishing practices and sustainable agriculture methods while adapting to the tidal environment of the Wadden Sea.

Visitors need to check tide schedules before planning activities, as water levels determine accessibility to certain areas within the park.

During migration seasons, the park hosts over 10 million birds, creating natural phenomena such as the starling formations called Black Sun.
