You will not only find sand in this varied landscape: just behind the dunes live many plants and animals, some of which are not found in any other place. The Westduin Park and the Wapendal Valley are examples of protected nature areas. Some of the large animals that walk around here are Scottish Highland (cattle) sheep and Shetland ponies. Because they eat from the crops, the vegetation remains low. In this way, the unique dune landscape is maintained.
