A place outside of the dike that stays partly dry for most of the time where you can see many waders, especially during high tide.
Striep is a high water refuge on the island of Terschelling where birds seek refuge when it's high tide in the Wadden Sea. You can see all kinds of waders, ducks and gulls fouraging, very often in large groups. During migration sometimes rarities and special birds can be found here. Among the birds you can expect here are sabljarka, duplinska kozarka, rdečenogi martinec, spremenljivi prodnik, veliki prodnik, veliki škurh, progastorepi kljunač, komatni deževnik, kamenjar and školjkarica.

Nederlands: Striep is een van de beste hoogwatervluchtplaatsen op Terschelling waar vogels bij vloed hun toevlucht zoeken aan de rand van de Waddenzee. Je ziet allerlei steltlopers, eenden en meeuwen fourageren, heel vaak in grote groepen. Tijdens de trek zijn hier soms zeldzaamheden en bijzondere vogels te vinden. Vogels die je hier kunt verwachten zijn sabljarka, duplinska kozarka, rdečenogi martinec, spremenljivi prodnik, veliki prodnik, veliki škurh, progastorepi kljunač, komatni deževnik, kamenjar en školjkarica.
There is a cycling path all along the outside of the dike close to the water. If you like to come by car, you can park at the inside of the dike, close to Striep. There is no official parking area. On the other side of the dike is also a small shallow wetland where many birds can be found at high tide (marked with a star on the map).

Nederlands: Langs de zeedijk loopt een fietspad langs het water. Kom je met de auto, dan kun je parkeren aan de binnenkant van de dijk, vlakbij Striep. Er is geen officiële parkeerplaats. Aan de binnenkant van de dijk vind je ook nog een klein ondiep wetland waar bij vloed veel vogels te vinden zijn (gemarkeerd met een ster op de kaart).
This high-tide refuge is of course the richest in birds during high tide. See the link to the tide table below to find the best time to visit.

Hotel – Restaurant de Walvisvaarder has been combining informality with hospitality for more than 50 years. Perfectly centrally located for bird watching on the beautiful island of Terschelling. Close to mudflats, beach, forest and polder. In the hotel, freedom and casualness are combined with hospitality, which brings people back to Terschelling every year. The converted farm in the little village of Lies is an ideal base from which to explore the island. After a day of bird watching or a long walk on the beach, you can enjoy a drink at our bar or on our terrace. When it is a bit colder outside, the fireplace burns in the evening. Cosy, enjoy, a second home….
