Harlinger Watersportvereniging
Visiting by boat
Founded in 1932, the Harlinger Watersportvereniging is a well-established club marina tucked close to the heart of Harlingen, one of Friesland's most characterful old port towns. You're right in the mix here — the historic centre, its canals, and the Wadden Sea coastline are all within easy reach once you're tied up. It's a proper association marina with a loyal local membership, so you'll get a genuine feel for the Dutch sailing scene rather than a commercial setup.
