Flevoland, ideal for the recreational boating
In the Netherlands, the province of Flevoland covers an area of almost 2,500 km², literally surrounded by water: the Markermeer, the IJsselmeer, the Ketelmeer, the Vossemeer, the Drontermeer, the Veluwemeer, the Wolderwijd, the Eemmeer, the Gooimeer and the IJmeer. Boaters can take advantage of this vast navigation area and easily move from one lake to another via locks and bridges.
In Flevoland, the water is fresh! The water is separated from the Wadden Sea by the closing dike, or Afsluitdijk. Sailors benefit from calm waters, where the only currents come from the wind. They can sail at their leisure through magnificent natural spaces, populated by an abundance of astonishing flora and fauna.
In addition to the natural and man-made banks and islets of Flevoland, there are many beautiful historic towns and harbours to discover. Volendam, Hoorn, Enkhuizen and Hindeloopen, for instance, are not to be missed. Then there are the more modern towns, such as Lelystad and Almere, which facilitate yachting activities by providing boaters with all the services they need.
Our marinas in Flevoland, starting points for a wide range of water activities
The Port Adhoc Group offers boaters three marinas in Flevoland: the Lelystad Haven marina, Deko Marina Lelystadand the Marina Muiderzand in Almere Poort. All are ideally located to enable boaters to discover the richness of Flevoland, whether by motorboat or sailboat.
Lelystad Haven and Deko Marina in Lelystad
Our two Lelystad marinas are conveniently located. Both are close to the Houtrib dike, or Houtribdijk, giving boaters direct access to Lake Marken and Lake IJssel. Boaters can easily pass from one to the other via the nearby lock. They can then reach the IJmeer, the Randmeren, the Wadden Sea, the North Sea, the Frisian lakes...
Marina Muiderzand in Almere
From Marina Muiderzand in Almere Poort, boaters can also access a wide range of waterways. From Lake IJmeer, where the marina is located, they can head east towards Lake Markermeer, then the IJsselmeer, or further south, towards Gooimer, Wolderwidj, Weluvemeer and the following Randmeren lakes.
Facilities in Flevoland, in the harbours of Lelystad and Almere
Staying in a marina offers many advantages. Whether it's a stopover for a few days, or a long-term stay with a seasonal or a annual berth. One of the main advantages is that you can take advantage of the facilities and services on offer.
In each of our Flevoland harbours, for instance, you'll find a place to wash your boat, professionals to service it or a dedicated area to store it.
As a boater, you'll be able to take advantage of our sanitary facilities, WiFi network, and obtain fuel or water and electricity at the quayside.
The environment of our marinas is sure to please. Take advantage of the proximity to the city at Lelystad Haven or Deko Marina Lelystad, where you can rent a bike. There's also the large beach at Marina Muiderzand, ideal to relax!
Our marinas are also ideal for water sports, whether it's the catamaran and kite-surfing beach at Marina Muiderzand in Almere, or the many events organized in the region. Short of equipment? In Marina Muiderzand, you'll find specialized stores where you can get your gear.
