We would like to thank you a lot for your great contribution to our wonderful boating vacation we had in Holland. You helped us a lot in giving all the information need about boating, since it was our first boating vacation.

We sailed for the first time in 2006. For the time of year we had very good weather. But we didn’t dare dream that April 2007 would also have fantastic weather in store for us. Together with another couple we really enjoyed the surroundings..

We have quite a few years sailing experience, but this was our first acquaintance with Wetterwille and we are happy to say that everything went really well! The Antares is comfortable and easy to sail. Too big for two people, but

Sailing in Friesland

The province of Friesland is known for its Frisian lakes: around 30 lakes that are connected through pools, ditches, and canals. Friesland is, therefore, a great destination for water sports enthusiasts: you can sail the most impressive routes without getting ‘interrupted’ by land. Moreover, there are more than enough ( Marrekrite ) mooring options in the villages, towns, and nature.

And the Frisian people? We are proud of our beautiful province, hospitable and more than happy to advise and help our visitors. Especially when you join us in our passion for water sports: most Frisians themselves are avid water sports enthusiasts too, which immediately creates a bond. You are very welcome!

• Boating holiday in Holland

Friesland has a suitable cruising holiday on offer for everyone

Approximately a third of the province of Friesland is made up of water. This means that you can get just about anywhere with a motorboat . Many of the bridges in Friesland can be opened, so it is possible to cruise some marvellous routes with a larger boat. For the routes with a lot of fixed bridges we have the 2.40 metre Brûzers and Doerakken in our fleet. With these boats there is no limit to where you can go on the waters of Friesland.

Mooring and staying overnight

Friesland has a suitable holiday environment for everyone. For instance you can enjoy extensive nature and peace. At the Marrekrite berths it is possible to moor up for the night in the heart of Friesland's nature.

You can also opt for a marina with accompanying facilities. Friesland also offers plenty of possibilities for those who prefer to stay closer to civilisation. The charming villages and towns throughout the province are definitely worth visiting.

Where can I cruise to with my motorboat?

Cruising on a motorboat is naturally not as fast as driving a car. This can sometimes make it difficult to judge distances. From our marina in Terherne via the Sneekermeer to Sneek takes approximately 1 hour.

The cruising area that is permitted with our ships is: Friesland (Sailing is only permitted on the IJsselmeer for ships longer than 12 metres and equipped with an IJsselmeer package), Overijssel, Groningen and Drenthe.
