Add category
The sandbanks or shoals exist because, owing to the Delta, sand is deposited by the tide that travels in the East Scheldt.
Certain shipping routes have to be kept open by continuous dredging of the sand out of the lanes.
Moreover, by high tide, they can´t be seen, so you have to navigate by the buoys.
