At the back of our premises is the Wadden playground. This is a playground where you can climb from island to island using ropes. Don't forget to take off your shoes as they might get dirty! Play in the water or pull a net through it to see what actually lives in it. Finished playing around? There is also a place to rinse yourself off again.
Children under the age of 13 can only play at our Wadden playground under supervision
All playing equipment at the Wadden playground belongs to the Sealcentre, please return it to the Summer Pavilion after use
The Wadden playground is also a non-smoking area, just like the rest of the terrain of Sealcentre Pieterburen
Always follow the instructions of our employees.
Our employees may deny you entry if you do not comply with our rules. Visitors are not entitled to compensation in this case.
Origin of the Wadden playground
The idea for the Wadden playground arose when signs of an old gully (a stream) were found on our property. Restoring the gully became the basis for the garden. A natural bank was also constructed by Waterschap Noorderzijlvest. This was given the original planting of the Groningen countryside with reed beds, a small spelt field and a wide variety of flowers and plants.
Realisation of the Wadden playground
De speeltuin is ontwikkeld als onderdeel van het project “Natuurlijk Pieterburen”. Het project is mogelijk gemaakt door subsidie van Kansrijk Groningen, met ondersteuning van Landschapsbeheer Groningen, Provincie Groningen en de voormalige gemeente De Marne. Wij zijn daarnaast ook erg dankbaar voor alle hulp en ondersteuning die we uit de buurt en alle betrokken partijen ontvingen. Bijvoorbeeld van basisschool “De Getijden” hier in Pieterburen. De scholieren mochten de speelplaats in 2017 openen. Het resultaat is geweldig!
