Cruising the Dutch Islands of the Waddenzee (Printed version)

This 92 page guide, A4 size and full colour throughout covers the hidden gems of the Dutch islands of the Waddenzee in the UNESCO World Heritage listed Wadden Sea to visit its 'other worldly' islands of Texel, Vlieland, Terschelling, Ameland and Schiermonnikoog.

Their reputation for tricky navigation, changeable weather conditions and expanses of drying mudflats has tended in the past to deter many foreign boaters, even though Dutch boaters have been enjoying the unspoilt delights of the islands for decades.

Authored by Dutch CA members Machiel Lambooij and Remko Sinck, the guide is primarily aimed at motor boat owners and includes information on all the islands, their facilities and attractions; detailed routes to arrive there, both from the Standing Mast Route and the North Sea; navigation and weather planning tools to ensure a safe passage and advice on documentation and licence requirements. Available in both printed and online PDF form, it also includes dozens of useful hyperlinks and QR codes to access a wealth of additional information on the internet.

The guide is regularly updated (usually annually) using reports submitted by members of the CA's European Inland Waterways Section (EIWS).

Note that this is the printed version of the guide which is free for CA members to download. The digital version of the guide can be downloaded free for members here.
