Kaap Kobbeduinen, Maritime beacon in Schiermonnikoog, Netherlands.
The wooden beacon stands prominently against the coastal landscape of the Wadden Sea, serving as a crucial reference point for maritime navigation.
The construction of navigational beacons on Schiermonnikoog began in 1731, with approximately twenty structures built to guide ships through the local waters.
Two granite stones near the beacon display haikus by artist Jan Loman, written in Norwegian and Dutch, connecting this location to Nesvag in Norway.
Visitors can reach the beacon through designated walking paths within Schiermonnikoog National Park, which offers multiple observation points for photography.
The beacon forms part of a network of maritime guidance structures on the island, including Kaap Willemsduin, marking safe passages through the Wadden Sea.
