Wichter Ee, Natural inlet between Norderney and Baltrum islands, Germany
The Wichter Ee forms a navigable channel through the Wadden Sea, connecting the North Sea with passages between the East Frisian Islands.
The maritime passage has served as a critical route for local fishing vessels and transportation between the East Frisian Islands since medieval times.
Maritime traditions of the East Frisian region continue through the regular passage of fishing boats and recreational vessels through the Wichter Ee waters.
Visitors can observe seals resting on sandbanks at the eastern end of Norderney island while maintaining a safe distance to protect the marine life.
The eastern border features substantial coastal defense structures that protect Baltrum island from strong westerly winds and storm surges.
