The arms of Neuharlingersiel show a two-masted sailing ship on a blue
background. The image of the schooner reminds of the large sailing ships
which had once their base here and shows the position of Neuharlingersiel
on the Northsea-coast. The colors blue and gold underline that the municipality
is part of the Samtgemeinde Esens.
