4.0Zeehondencentrum Pieterburen(295 reviews) - Donateuren dag Wednesday: 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM Spent 1-2 hours Zoos • Educational sites
We are Sealcentre Pieterburen, one of the oldest and best seal rehabilitation centres in the world. On our campus and field station live and work volunteers and researchers from all over the world. By our collective passion and multidisciplinary approach we form a learning community. We transfer our passion to the public and make them aware of our mission. For years we have a passion and take care for the seal, including its environment. A clean and healthy Wadden Sea is very dear to us. This unique piece of nature has the title 'World heritage' and we should treat it accordingly; for now, for later and for our children. This puts a great responsibility on as human beings and as a social enterprise. The role of the seal is crucial; it is the indicator of a clean sea. We measure, monitor, rehabilitate and share our knowledge. To keep both the seal and its habitat healthy and to offer our knowledge and expertise internationally.See more..
Fun with children! Small Zoo with a lot of turtles :), much appreciated by children, they can feel, smell, hear and look at small animals. The entourage is friendly and based on trust. Time we spent was around 2 hours with a 2 year old child. This included painting a duck with water paint. There is a very small play ground included, this contains a air cushion, and a swing.

Smaller than your average zoo, but guaranteed entertainment for young children. Lots of places to climb and to discover. The large collection of owls Yes and wild birds of prey pleasantly surprised us. We liked most that you could get close to the animals, if felt more casual than bigger zoos. Recommended to go early to beat the crowds. One point of improvement, the food in the restaurant was not great, but for a small place with limited facilities this is to be expected.See more..
