Wesselburener Loch

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Wesselburener Loch is a tidal creek in the Wadden Sea northwest of Büsum off the Dithmarsch coast.

The creeks, known as holes, are deep, small creeks that rightly use their popular name, as they represent kilometer-long, trough-like depressions in the wadden floor. Due to its great depth (at the Wesselburener Loch, for example, up to twelve meters), the water can never completely drain away at low tide.
