galant. germany's only hi cease island. enjoying nature, letting the wind blow all around you and relaxing. that's what many people who come here want me to the journey from hamburg to helical land takes 3 and a half hours at catamaran. takes me there. no other boat is faster. you probably already on arrival the holiday mood kicks in. all the passengers initially half the same route. everybody passes the colorful lumps the huts and walks along, but promenades somewhere here is my hotel. most of the is

to rise here. go back in the afternoon. there are more or less $3000.00 visitors here every day. but i would like to stay overnight, so i have more time and no stress to discover this small island. a must on helical land is a visit to the seals. if you like it loud, you're in for the punk festival open will boot our thoughts. and there is another holiday video of the week. this time it's from australia. my 1st walk takes me into the country side all the way up to the over lagoon. a route along the edge of the rock that forms helical and leaps around the island. the cliffs path water, water,

as far as the i can see, the mainland is 50 kilometers away. i passed the langer anna, the tall anna. this free standing rock is the landmark of helical land. every one hopes that it can withstand the wind and the waves for a long time. and i continued to germany, smallest nature reserve the lumen fez and the rock of the gilam us. it is the nesting ground of many see birds, but it is named after the gillmet in june. these small feather, bolts, take, wing, amateur photographers wait for them to take their courageous plunge. there are not many places in europe where you can get so close to wildlife bird watching isn't the only thing you can do here over there is the do not and off shore island and even smaller than go lance, germany's largest grease your column,

he lives over there, and you can join a guided tour to get really close to those animals. some animals have got it figured out by lay on the beach all day, basking in the sun and cool off now and then with a quick dip in the sea life and helical, and is generally tranquil and unhurried. that do no island ranger makes sure it stays that way where that joshua esa come and felt more and more guests are coming to see hillock or land and one to benefit from the high seas air. but more and more animals are coming as well. and the dealer ranges are here to make sure we can all live together and get along. all right. people can ask me questions and enjoy the beach in harmony. i'm fun. kathrina. tilly's area responsibility is just 7 tenths of a square kilometer. the island of dune and a couple of dunes is about all it is in, you know,

and dina range. is there any found here because this island is called dina and i medina, ranger randall once a week, halligan's visitors have an opportunity to tag along with the ranger unexplored tuna island on an organized nature to read. then the muffin, if you find something and think it looks exciting, pick it up and take it along. we'll have a look and i'm sure we can figure out what it is that is i'm often both of is somewhat rare and not easy to find is the red flint saw doesn't mother i behind 3 variations, but it's always some shade of red to you or not ross colored and not orange, as you can find it in yellow and several variations of that. but the red flint is what's unique to helical land. ah, for most of the visitors here, the true stars of the island are the seals go up and over the birth thing

sees and begins around november and almost as soon as the females given beth. she's able to mate again. the lago also name, so 2 weeks later the 1st bulls are back trying to get at her again. won't. i'm not as cute and harmless. as the seals may look, they're not necessarily cuddly. all the gray seal is germany's biggest predator and it can move a 20 kilometers per hour as being mom. so it's not a good idea to get too close to them. and even if nothing's happened so far, the possibilities always there. i can't read their minds even come flying home, but she can count the animals monitoring that population is one of her routine tasks, along with showing visitors around can't you see this on the sand and surf fit for man and beast the like? oh,

although this island is very small, it has an incredibly eventful history. and you can learn more about it in the halligan museum yoke and blaze is the boss. here. he tells me that this island used to be a pirates nest, a navy fort, and a trading post. in the early 18th century, it was just as important as the international port of hamburg is to date, helical, and was once part of denmark than of great britain. it was not until $1890.00 that the island became german, a fiercely contested piece of ground. when was the most dramatic moment in the history of the island, the indian i had at a modest the most dramatic moment was definitely the end of world war 2, the great bombardments and the home on him. and everybody had to be evacuated into and then came the big bang. in april 1947 resulted in the complete destruction of the islands buildings. not the british occupying forces once tried to destroy all

the islands military facilities with 6.7, killer tons of explosives. never again, should it be used for military purposes. for many years, hello, galant remained uninhabitable. a few in fulton county before in 1954, the population began returning to the island, and tourism immediately started appear again of our money off that 1st they slept intense antuna because there was no place at all to stay here on the island. there were no houses or anything, so they stayed a little tense and do in stun sold whatever they needed. call we could pass true and by little souvenirs and people came and rose to see helical. and again, that's losing. soon tourists came in masses, not because of the beautiful nature, but to by duty free liquor and cigarettes and anointing emphasis on voice. when we had, how did the island and your this, or i just imagine 10 or 12000 visitors here on this really small island,

a small fortune there was terrible. that must be said, that there was no room between all the people who we just heard had passed the shops and through here shoulder to shoulder and florida. we might see something nice and one of the shops b didn't stand the chance of getting to it to buy it, who just pushed on ahead by the crowds until you ended up back at the ship and at the sail home again upon. mm hm. and how come prices are so cheap on helical, and i had us and we believe that's a privilege we had from her time with britain. and it's been preserved through all the changes in rule on does it, it was taken on in the treaties. and so we've always had her duty and tax free status here. now it still exists, but to day the tourists come here for the nature almost as it used to be when helical and became a seaside resort in the early 19th century. at 1st, people came here for the good air. it was the beginning of helical, lance tourism this

island is so small, you can easily walk around it, and it just takes one or 2 hours helical and is pretty popular with tourists. and we will show you why many go lance dance, getting crowded every day around noon. you can almost set your watch by it. that's when the excursion ships arrived from the north sea coast and hand ag. the visitors a fairy to land from the ship's in jolly boat's known locally as built boats in 2018. they were listed with unesco. intangible world heritage. oh it's afternoon as humans from when the seaside result was founded here in 1827. we didn't have any harbor, no break waters or peers. we had nothing at all nights and i just when the 1st passenger ship arrived a year later, they had to drop anchor somewhere. and our fishermen and pilots went out in our fishing boats and brought the guests for the 1st time over to land in their berto boats. and he got 2 of my brother. go, come on my lunch,

give them eventually. the harbor was built and ferrying passengers was no longer necessary. soon after the ships put in the pedestrian malls, philip visitors still come to shop duty free. oh, they generally have 4 hours before their ship sales. again. the tours are time so that the day trip has can go along to the bunker to it brings them some 25 meters deep inside the red cliffs. this is where the hamburger land is, sought shelter from the bombings. it's the only remainder of a once vast bunker complex running through out hello good. and what is the time to be? it's the part we're a now came through all the bombings in and after the war on damaged. the last bombs fell in february 1952. so it's important to us shots, many helical anders, especially the older ones,

older lives to whitland out because the item from id number to leave the lobster hats are typical of helical land. that few people know they were built here in the 19 fifties and sixty's as part of a plant city. it's a little 1st, of course the cliff was here and a huge bunk of english blew up in 1947. when did the english as the more fits is that led to the formation of the lines now called the mit lantus. midland and duncan or, and the lobster, hart saw now essentially a retaining wall for the loose rock offered us out. we look at the english dime an architects competition was announced for the reconstruction in 1951 over a 1000 architects to part their task was to find the optimum use of the limited space while orienting the houses favorably to the sun and wind. every detail was thought up down to the paint. it was limited to 14 callous to day

heyliger land is like an open air museum of the 19 fifties and sixties building style. almost every house is listed as historical a closer look at hellig land quickly reveals that it's full of fascinating stories and where the longest stay or even a return visit ah, i want to do that to get on the boat and go around the island. it takes 45 minutes. the excursion boats only put out if the waves are no higher than 2 meters. thank goodness. ah, in the slipstream of the island, it is still peaceful. but as soon as we clear the tip of the island,

the rocking starts almost to meet her waits. all you need now is a strong stomach and occasionally something to hold on to nobody get seasick. we all have our sea legs, water, wind, and waves. that's what our weekly be mail is about as well. our viewer johan is from singapore, loves traveling just like me. he's been to the other side of the world to australia and here's his holiday video. ah,

ah, ah. ah, ah. ah

ah. almost 1500 people live on the helical ent and the sea is part of almost every once lives . most of them have ancestors who were sailors or fishermen, maybe even pirates. oh, see shanties and sailors. songs are part of the cultural heritage. oh, i'm here for a rehearsal of the hegel in that cock thinkin shanty choir. oh, that he, i think that song you just sang, was that a regular sailor song or

a shanty judith, while i did know that was actually our theme song. it has nothing to do with either the can. it was in hollander, the fusion dialect and it just means the cock fin canal. great guys. no more than that. i told her carl is in reminding me that there are shanties in sailors, songs. what's the difference? he does, he must be the sailor songs are simply romantic songs. they used to sing, but the shanties were the work songs for the seamen of earlier times available. it was hard work on the shapes of a dog, one of them a call, the tune and the jobs and the choir would on sunday, the work the lead singer never had to work. and it's just the same with us was, i'm assuming when they are widened of respond, gemalto whose lead singer forcing to day, the leasing is off. he sings the song of hold off smoke. can he can i sing a shanty like that voice? oh, i'm sure we can do that. no. like i said, the lead singer hoff. he'll sing the beginning when we jump in and when you can just sing along the thing, the thing don't matter. i've only been like so i go mad. i'm

ah, a oh no bail must know her bay. oh oh. oh i don't i oh, i know. i go to lake name a way. oh, a long time very long a

so oh, that was really good job. middle doesn't go so really want to join the cock finn, have to meet 3 conditions. be a man, live on helical and, and be able to sing. they have strict rules, but they are friendly guys. i every spring because i have an important job. they open the punk festival warren, who boots are fought hero helical, and with their shanties, 3 days in a row of bands from all over europe gather here on the island. oh, i went to festival here on healey. go land, ladies and gentlemen, the car thinkin. 8 0,

i of see shanties. everyone's had amenities before and likes to sing them over a beer, shanties and pung, actually go together him. mm. the storm battered seagulls face an invasion of odd buds. we can get to flock to dina island for the rock and roll, but a thought which means something like booze. cruise to necessities are good weather and better beer. 12 kegs have to be put away and nothing changes faster on hillagada and then the weather. by the time the 1st rays of sun appear on the dina restaurants terrace, the 2nd grog, chris disappeared. ah,

i know they didn't have any guns, just get tons, beer morbid and a party ship all their own then a good and is hosted their 1st pung fest in 2003 with mixed feelings. as the former mayor recalls, i'm yes at 1st. the gave the decision makers here in the town hall, a little shock when they heard the words punk festival. they could to see it happening and do now with the nature reserve new to some people over 70 years old. and then here comes punk rock called, how could it work? no matter how you do it, it wouldn't work. then a little administrative voice piped up and said, well, we could give it a try before we on the 150 fans at the 1st one quickly grew to over 1000 the bands even played for free just for the atmosphere. the see the applause and what the fans would give her. put down now bands come from all over this end of europe for the rock and roll, but her father, they play and party till midnight. then the fans will crawl into their tents unless

the wind has swept them away. in the meantime, the lobster house by the harbor are a good place for a snack. these used to be warehouses for the fisherman to day restaurants have moved in they mainly offer seafood dishes, for example, helical and can hipa crap pincers crab. what under spectrum. but the cutlery is strange by and i'd like it's only been ever radius with a hammer. ok, though up, we have to break it a little like this, not crack it sound done, calmed us here. i think my colleagues, the finish would love this. our globetrotter always tries to the local food on his travels all around the world. and this time, steve has been to cuba and here's his new video.
