During the flood disaster, the seawater flowed in and out of the polders, eroding deep gullies. The dikes have now been closed, but the water in the gullies has remained. That is why beautiful creeks have now formed here, where you can find birds and other animals. You might even see a lizard dart away. In the water, you can also find fish such as the eel, the flounder, and the rainbow trout. This fish can be recognized by its black spots. But there is one place on its body where there are no spots. Follow the route and look around carefully, and you will learn more about the rainbow trout.
Question 4: Where on its body does it have no spots? Take the 2nd and 3rd letter of the answer.
Brouwershaven, town on the Grevelingen and city with many faces. Once a trading town where many goods were landed or shipped in the days when Rotterdam was not easily accessible by water. And, of course, it is the birthplace of the famous Jacob Cats. Among all these highs, Brouwershaven also has low points. But each time it rose again.
A dike must hold back the water. But which stones do you use for this? Along this new sea dike, you can see different types of stones that have been used or are still being used.

Question 2: Have you found all three of them? Then take the 3rd letter of the stone type Haringmanblok. Take the 2nd letter of the stone type Diaboolglooing. Take the 8th letter of the stone type Systeem Leendertse.
Discover the historical Atlantikwall at the Zeepeduinen and Slot Haamstede on Schouwen. This impressive defense line consisted of dozens of bunkers, including the Walvisbunker: a command bunker of the type 117a, located on the highest dune. From here, the Germans had command over all defense works on Schouwen during World War II.
In addition to the Walvisbunker, there are many other bunkers to be found, including standard models that occur throughout the Atlantikwall, personnel shelters, and a hospital bunker. The Stützpunkgruppe Schouwen, an extensive complex of dozens of bunkers in the dunes of Schouwen and in the Slotbos of castle Haamstede, was intended to defend the coast and the Haamstede airfield against an Allied invasion.
Visit this unique location and discover the history of the Atlantikwall and the Walvisbunker. Admire the armored observation dome on the roof of the bunker and see the spaces for a radio, officers, supplies, and the machine gun post for the defense of the bunker itself.
Here you can discover for yourself what can be found in the creek. Look through the periscope at the water surface or fish water from the creek. If you prefer to add water, use the pump and see how the water flows. All this in a historical place, namely on parts of the old sea dike.
Question 5: At which location are you? Take the last letter of this.
