Marker Wadden
Drop anchor off Marker Wadden, one of western Europe's most ambitious nature restoration projects — an artificial archipelago built from scratch between 2016 and 2021 in the Markermeer. The islands were engineered to revive a freshwater ecosystem that had been struggling for decades, and the results are striking: birds, fish, and plant life have returned in force. It's a rare chance to anchor beside a landscape that literally didn't exist ten years ago.
