Yacht charter IJsselmeer
From Texel to Sylt
Seafaring has been of particular importance to the Dutch for centuries. This bond and tradition is reflected today in the flat bottom ships on the IJsselmeer. But it doesn't always have to be a vacation on this traditional boat, which today is more about school trips than the transport of goods and freight. Boating holidays on a modern sailing ship - with or without a skipper - are just as popular here and offer all the comforts of today's travel.
Rent a yacht in Holland and get to know Dutch port cities that have world-famous names. Take Hoorn, for example, which today lies on the diked Markermeer and gave its name to the dreaded Cape of Storms. Haarlem is not just a district of New York, but was founded by Dutch immigrants from this city. The Jongert shipyard is based in Medemblik, from where it delivers its much-admired luxury yachts. So there is a lot to discover!

Where do you start your journey on the IJsselmeer?
The port of departure for every sailing trip with Scansail is Lemmer. From there, you can choose from a variety of sailing yachts for rent, with which you can, for example, go to the destinations Enkhuizen, Medemblik or Stavoren.
The distances on the IJsselmeer are pleasantly short and easy to manage even for beginners. The distance from coast to coast is just ten nautical miles on average. The longest stretch, around 30 miles, is between Kornwerderzand, the lock to the mudflats in the northeast, and Lelystad on the eastern passage of the Houtribdeich, which splits the area into two parts. The route can be mastered in six hours with a reasonable wind.

Discover the IJsselmeer by sailing boat
Those who want to stay longer in the southern part can moor in Durgerdam on the east bank. If you don't mind nightly frog concerts, you will find peace and seclusion in Durgerdam. From here, nearby Amsterdam can be easily reached by bus, and a trip to Hollands Waterland, a nature reserve, is worthwhile by bike. The great flood of 1421 left a strange landscape here. The groundwater reaches to the grass roots and collects in countless ditches and pools.
If you are looking for a jump onto clear water from the IJsselmeer, the blow would have to lead north, to the ports of the Holland peninsula. Perhaps, however, the "White Horse of Marken", the lighthouse of the former island of Marken, will be left lying on the port side. Dispensing with the somewhat rancid charm of Volendam, the equally fine and overcrowded Renaissance town of Hoorn ticks off and runs the twenty miles to Enkhuizen.
Charter a yacht: From Holland to Friesland
If you want to avoid the hustle and bustle in Enkhuizen and Hoorn, you should switch from the province of Holland to the province of Friesland on the east side of the IJsselmeer. With Hindeloopen, Workum and Makkum near the final dike, there are enough daily destinations. If the return of the boat is urgent, the decision should be made in favor of Stavoren. The rather inconspicuous entrance to the Oude Haven is marked by four huge beach villas. They will soon be included in the manuals as landmarks. A row of red houses was also built out of the ground on the south side of the old port. Smitstraat, a popular strolling street, with its clique shops is mutating more and more into a posh restaurant mile for sailboat tourists. In between is the Oranjehuis, one of the most beautiful treasure troves for special nautical antiques on the IJsselmeer. The berths score with modern supply facilities.
The week on the rented yacht will probably be over when Stavoren is reached. But maybe the crew felt like eating miles and a day or two are left of the vacation budget. Time enough for a little trip to the Wadden Sea. Out on the free North Sea: current navigation, good swell, but also the endless beaches of the North Sea islands with their old fishing ports are waiting.
If time is really short, Texel is recommended as a close destination. Oudeschild is only nine miles as the crow flies from Den Oevers Schleuse on the west side of the dike. Despite the swerve to the west that the tidal fairway forces, the route can be made in three hours. The island port is located on the green edge of the mainland. It is a few kilometers to the breathtaking beach. But that's not a problem. The fiets, bicycles, are taken care of by the nice master of the new guest harbor. And who knows: Perhaps such a short detour to the Watt will make you want to go on the next Holland cruise.

Ijsselmeer / Wattensee / Nordsee
Large areas of one Wadden Sea
regularly fall dry twice a day during the low tide period (ebb) and are flooded during the high tide period (high tide). The areas that fall dry at low tide are called tidal flats. However, the term Wadden Sea is only used on flat coasts with sand or mud flats. The channels through which the water runs preferentially from the tidal flats at low tide and through which the water flows preferentially into the tidal flats at high tide are called tidal creeks, the largest of which are called sea muds.
The West and East Frisian Islands
The West Frisian Islands lie between Holland and the mouth of the Ems and are part of the Dutch provinces of North Holland, Fryslân and Groningen. The main islands are Texel, Vlieland, Terschelling, Griend, Ameland and Schiermonnikoog. The East Frisian Islands extend from the Ems to the Weser estuary and are part of East Friesland and the Oldenburg Friesland. The most important islands are Borkum and Norderney. It also includes Baltrum, Juist, Langeoog, Spiekeroog and Wangerooge. Furthermore, the islands of the coastal Heligoland Bay from Eiderstedt via the Elbe and Weser estuaries to Wilhelmshaven also belong to the Frisian Islands, even if they are not directly assigned to any of the three subgroups. The most important islands are Trischen, Scharhörn and Neuwerk.
From Lemmer (from west to east) to Sylte and with the standing mast route back to Lemmer!
Cruise duration 21 days.

The IJsselmeer with a difference!
On course to culinary highlights
In this sense: Bon appetit!
Lauwersoog, Fish stall. It's right in the hall, on the back of which the fishing boats unload their catch. Once through the building, a round through the breading and off into the hot fat. The result is kibbeling, small pieces of fillet or Lekkerbek, i.e. the whole fillet. If you manage to defend yourself against the seagulls, a real delicacy.
West Terschelling, Restaurant de Heksenketel. Anyone who arrives on Terschelling has an exciting trip behind them. And hunger. The Heksenketel helps. Once you've made a reservation, something hearty awaits you from the sea or from the land. Complete menus, like in France, take away the agony of choice http://www.heksenketel-terschelling.nl
West Terschelling Harbor Restaurant
Oudeschild, Texel. De Compagnie. Texels beer and spare ribs. Finished. Live music on Tuesdays after dinner. There's really nothing more to say. Spare rips don't get any better. And don't mess around with any of the other stuff on the menu. Also good: the dedicated telephone line from the terrace directly to the playground. What that means? Go there, find out! www.decompagnietexel.nl
The oever, de Dikke Bries. The restaurant at the inland port is ideal after a cold autumn trip with drizzle back from Texel. Not in the mood to cook and looking for a way to dry the oilskins, the restaurant is just right. We didn't even dare to hope that we would meet such a good one. Good food, exciting decorations (see for yourself!) And a bit spoiled staff. Simply lovely. http://www.dedikkebries.nl
Medemblik, de Twee Schwoutjes. Just a few miles along the coast from Den Oever and you are and eat in Medemblik. If possible, always moor in the Oosterhaven right in front of the restaurant's door. A funny group is waiting for the guests in the old walls. You get the feeling that people are doing everything to give you a good time. The house wine (red) is also highly recommended. Best for a nightcap next door. To Jacques in Cafe Brakebour. http://www.detweeschouwtjes.nl
Grou, Oostergoo restaurant. Off to Friesland, in the heart of the province in the Prinzenhof. If you want to eat this at Oostergoo, you have to go into the labyrinth of canals and small lakes, to Grou. Drive through there almost into the village and moor on the most beautiful terrace in the Netherlands. The food is wine and whiskey selections are fine and afterwards there is a good piece of cheese. www.oostergoo.nl
Grou, de tamarind. This is a chip shop in the middle of town with a secret: Shoarma. It is an Egyptian Gyros. The Patat Shoarma met Knooflooksaus is a hearty whole meal. Finally, there is a little lettuce on top. Ces and Anette's shop is also a great place to learn Frisian. Oant Sjen! Update: Anette cheated on Ces. He is rarely to be found in the store. Regardless, the Shoarma remains a hit!
Lemmer, Pizzeria La Gondola. On the canal and really big. Smart staff, really good food and good portions. Absolutely do. Incidentally, one of the first pizzerias that I know that really does steak. www.pizzerialagondola.nl
Lemmer, de eerste aanleg. Restaurant / pub at the port of Tacozijl. Driving from the large lock towards the city is actually the first opportunity to moor. The boss, Richard, is simply a world class host. Sometimes it seems a bit improvised, but always very lovable. And there is the 45 ° Nord Teller. What is that? Try out. And bring a lot of appetite! www.eersteaanleg.com
Hindeloopen, de Hinde. First house on the square at the old port. Was "pimped" by the famous Dutch TV chef Joop Braakhekke. His mother lives in Hindeloopen and he wanted to have a decent meal with her. So he gave the owners a little help. With success. Very worthwhile. But make a reservation! www.dehinde.nl
52 ° 42'N, 5 ° 18'E
Enkhuizen, Mast bar. Restaurant in the Compagnieshaven. Sit outside when the weather is nice! The view of the IJsselmeer and the lively Krabbersgat is fantastic. The lamb and whiskey selection for afterwards is just as fantastic. The downer: the owners prefer not to have children in the restaurant. Then it's not possible. However, if you are out and about without offspring, it is definitely an option in Enkhuizen, which is otherwise a bit gloomy. www.demastenbar.nl

As well as, great food in a beautiful atmosphere - De three harings
Amsterdam, Hotel de Goudfazant. No, it's not a hotel. You don't even want to believe that it's supposed to be a restaurant when you're standing in front of the factory floor. But even inside, the atmosphere still breathes hard work. But that's the trick: hidden in an industrial area in a factory hall, the whole thing gives the impression of an insider tip. That it hasn't been for a long time becomes clear as all the tables gradually fill up to the last seat. The food is pretty good and so is the wine. The staff is great and the atmosphere is unique. Or when was the last time you ate between a Citroen DS and a Porsche 911? Reservations are compulsory. http://www.hoteldegoudfazant.nl
Willemstad, De Rosmolen. We are in the south. Between Haringvliet and Hollandsch Diep. The sweet fortress town of Willemstad has many charms. One of them is definitely the Restaurant de Rosmolen. The owners lure with extraordinary compositions and new flavors. The staff is great, the house wine (red) as well. A great place to start your tour of Zeeland. http://www.rosmolen.nl
