This live stream follows the ferry at Oudeschild, the harbour village on the eastern side of Texel in the Netherlands. It suits anyone planning a crossing or curious about the comings and goings on the Wadden Sea. The page also shows local time and the weather so you can judge conditions before you head down to the quay.

About Oudeschild and Texel

Oudeschild lies on the east coast of Texel, the largest of the Dutch Wadden Islands, in the province of North Holland. The village grew around its fishing harbour and still has a working port atmosphere, with boats moored along the water and low houses facing the sea. Texel is known for its dunes, salt marshes, lighthouses and the sheep that graze the dykes, and the island is reached by ferry from the mainland at Den Helder.

What the camera shows and when

The title names a ferry, so the view is centred on the vessel traffic at the harbour rather than on the beach. Watching is most rewarding around the scheduled departures and arrivals, when the boat is in frame. Depending on the view, you may also notice the changing light over the water, tides moving in and out, and wind strength, which is easiest to judge from moving water and flags. Conditions vary a lot from hour to hour.

Practical notes and nearby views

The Wadden climate is mild but windy, with cool summers and wet, blustery winters, so spring and early autumn are often the pleasant months for a visit. Oudeschild is small and easy to explore on foot or by bicycle. Other cameras nearby include the Zeehondjes-cam, the Jachthaven view, the lammetjes-cam and the Wadden Haven camera, which give you more of the village and its shoreline.
