Jachthaven De Schapenput

Tucked along the Steenbergse Vliet in the small village of De Heen, De Schapenput is a quiet, full-service marina sitting right inside a nature reserve — so the surroundings are genuinely lovely rather than just a parking lot for boats. You reach it by sailing through a monumental lock complex from the Krammer Volkerak, which is half the fun. It's the kind of place that feels unhurried and well looked after, with clean facilities and a relaxed North Brabant countryside atmosphere all around you.
