Taking to the water

sailing through city, Maas and Biesbosch National Park

The (Bergsche) Maas is a popular waterway. Not only is it easily accessible and navigable, mooring facilities are also plentiful. Every year, many thousands of guests moor their boat, sloop or yacht in the ports of fortified Geertruidenberg (fortified town on the Biesbosch), Raamsdonksveer, Waspik, Sprang-Capelle and fortified Heusden.

Once ashore, boaters with bikes on board can also explore the beautiful surroundings from land. Conversely, the marinas provide access from land to water. Here you can board a canal boat or rent a sloop and let the skipper guide you through the most beautiful spots on the water. What could be better than boarding a boat on a warm summer day and enjoying the rippling water? With the Biesbosch in the backyard, adventure is right around the corner, with its maze of waterways and beaver expeditions.
