The Wadden Sea coast between Horumersiel and Crildumersiel may host only small patches of salt marsh, many different bird species can be observed in the area.
The coastal section of Horumersiel are Crildumersiel is rich in water birds and waders. Every year, many prutgås can be seen northeast of the port of Horumersiel. ejder can be located in the harbour itself, while on the stone walls outside the harbour at high tide roskarl and various gull species rest. During storms this place might be very useful for seewatching as such sheartwaters, skuas and tärnmås have already bin observed although it is hardly practiced so far. The best place is sitting in shelter of the harbour pier. During bird migration, many kärrsnäppa, större strandpipare and rödbena can be observed, which gather shortly after flooding on the free-falling mudflats just south of the harbour. East of the harbour, individual smålom and småskrake can be discovered in winter. The inland depression southwest of the port is interesting all year round. Various species of ducks can be seen here, as well as storskrake in winter. During high tide there are often large groups of storspov and bläsand right next to the main road. Crildumersiel, the small but easily visible flood rest area, is about three kilometers south. In addition to rödbena and gluttsnäppa, strandskata and storspov , this is a very good spot to see småspov from the dike. You can approach quite closely and they are used of tourists so it is worth to check the bird groups thoroughly in order to find rare species or colour-rings. It has a good list of rarities recorded with rödnäbbad trut, trädmås , prärielöpare , tereksnäppa, blek tornseglare being the best so far.
