Sylt is an island very close to Germany and Denmark. Connected by the Hindenburg causeway to the mainland, this 30km long island isonly a few hundred metres across at its thinnest point. It is covered in dunes and heathland, and battered by the strong westerly winds from the North Sea. Its west coast is constantly subjected to coastal erosion; but sheltered on the east, where the Wadden Sea lies, is a world heritage site.

11-year-old Helen explains what life is like on the island and how the impact of tourism and migration has changed Sylt's geography. Her and her friends show us the Wadden Sea and the important conservation work being undertaken there.
