Borkum lies off the mouth of the Ems and is the westernmost and largest of the East Frisian Islands. The Wadden Sea around the island has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2009.Borkum has three lighthouses. The Old Lighthouse now serves as a daytime landmark, and the New Lighthouse in the west of the island is a listed monument. The Small Lighthouse stands on a ten-metre dune on the south-west side; together with it, Germany's first coastal radio station was set up on Borkum. Next to the Old Lighthouse, the Dykhus local museum shows life on the island, and the water tower from 1900 is 30 metres tall.
The lightship Borkumriff IV recalls the Borkumriff lightship station, manned from 1875 to 1988. The Drinkeldodenkarkhoff is a cemetery for drowned people washed ashore by the sea.
