JIsselmeer

Holland is a favourite place for sailors to go. It especially enjoyed by the Germans, because it's not too far away for the neighbouring country. From our area in Central Germany, it's only a five hour drive, and the JIsselmeer is great place for a week-long or weekend sailing trip.  The JIsselmeer is the biggest laguna in Northern Europe, and is a smaller version of the Zuidersee.  It's considered a good area for beginners, because it's not too far between harbours.  

For people who aren't really sure if sailing is their "thing", this is the best place to try it out - on a laguna that doesn't get gigantic waves.  Besides this the scenary is beautiful in Holland.

That's not a problem though, since we can charter a ship as soon as we get a boatfull of people together.  The JIsselmeer is full of charter sailboat companies.  Have you got a couple of friends to go sailing?  Then drop us a note, and we'll organise a trip.  

As soon as we get together 3-6 people, we can go sailing in Holland.  Weekend trips start on Friday afternoons.  We sleep on board overnight, and sail off to another town the next day.  And back to the base on Sunday afternoon.  We should point out, though, that week-long trips are hardly more expense than weekend trips.  Example:  a weekend trip costs around 100 € per person and around 150 € per person for a whole week and the off-season!

The JIsselmeer is optimal for a try-out trip, skipper training, or a chance to finally have a try steering a big sailboat all by yourself, while discovering the beauty of Holland. 
We can either cook on board, or eat out in the local restaurants.  
Our trip plan is up to you.  Where should we go?  Amsterdam, Lemmer, Enkhuisen, Hoorn, Rotterdam, or should we brave the ferrocious tides of the North Sea and venture out to one of the Friesian islands?
