Set Sail for the Marker Wadden Sanctuary

Wooden boardwalk path through coastal dunes on Marker Wadden island.
Categories: Traveling | General

Take a boat trip from Lelystad harbour to Marker Wadden, a newly created archipelago of artificial islands designed to restore natural eco-systems to the Markermeer. It is one of the most innovative ecological restoration projects in Europe.

Pack sturdy walking shoes and binoculars. The main island features wooden boardwalks, bird hides, and off-grid eco-cabins. Tickets for the ferry should be booked online in advance during spring and summer to secure your spot on the boat.
