Seal, Sea, Science.

The Sealcentre supports seals and their habitat – the UNESCO Wadden Sea World Heritage site. We will make every possible effort to prevent seals from getting into trouble. If, in spite of our efforts, a seal ends up in distress, it will receive care, partly behind the scenes, and partly visible to our visitors. We are convinced that healthy seals and a healthy sea are inextricably linked. Researchers in our sanctuary study what we can learn from this principle – for the seal, for our sea and for our own health. You can support our work with a visit or a donation. Every contribution counts. Are you in?

Denims wanted

The construction of the World Heritage Centre in Lauwersoog is in full swing: this will also be our new location in 2025! That is why we are looking for... old jeans! 5481 kilograms in all. Did you know that denim can be reused for the insulation material métisse? So your old jeans can get a new lease of life in the ceiling tiles at our centre. Will you help us? Starting next week, you can hand in your old jeans and other denim clothing at various locations in Groningen and Friesland!

How to help

Since 1971, we have been committed to seals and their habitat. We have been able to do so for so long, thanks to your support. We receive no subsidy from the government. All contributions, in whatever form, are therefore more than welcome.
