Noardeast-Fryslan

Noardeast-Fryslân is known across Frisia for its stretch of the UNESCO World Heritage Wadden Sea coast. This northeastern Dutch municipality extends from tidal mudflats and sea dikes to the old town of Dokkum, its principal centre. Dokkum is closely associated with Saint Boniface, the Anglo-Saxon missionary killed nearby in 754; the Boniface spring and chapel preserve that memory. Former fishing settlements, terp villages built on dwelling mounds, and the Holwerd ferry route to Ameland give the area a distinct coastal identity.
