What can you expect during the trip on the TX20 Walrus?

• Shrimp fishing in the Wadden Sea: After leaving the harbour, the nets are cast, and together with the crew, you’ll catch shrimp and other sea creatures.
• Meet the Seals: During the trip, you’ll sail past areas where seals often rest on sandbanks. A great chance to see these animals up close!
• Educational Commentary on Board: At the back of the deck, a fisherman explains the catch and talks about life in the Wadden Sea.
• Viewing and Tasting the Catch: The nets are hauled in, and you’ll discover what lives in the sea: shrimp, crabs, starfish, gobies, and more. The shrimp are freshly cooked on board, and you’ll learn how to peel and taste them.
