Sylt Aquarium
A seaside aquarium in Westerland showing North Sea and tropical marine life, with walk-through underwater tunnels.
Sylt Aquarium lies on the southern seafront of Westerland and is divided into a North Sea section and a tropical section. The displays include North Sea cod, flounder, starfish and lobster, as well as tropical reef fish and sharks. Two underwater tunnels let visitors walk beneath the sea. It is a moderate size, so a visit takes about 1–1.5 hours, making it suitable for families or rainy days. It is open daily; tickets cost about 15–20 euros, and it is about a 15-minute walk from central Westerland.
