From Emden the helicopter flies up to the westernmost German island Borkum whose endless sand beaches are a dream come true for kite buggy drivers. Alongside guide Kurt Knittel the crew walks across the bottom of the sea at ebb tide. Once a day, the Wadden Sea falls dry, revealing a unique biotope of crabs, lobs and mussels. The journey continues along the dikes and canals. From the air the numerous sheep appear like small dots. Grazing on the dike, they keep the turf of the embankment solid. Not far ahead, the cranes of Bremerhaven port tower aloft. 50 million tons of goods, more than in New York or Le Havre, are handled in the harbor each year.
