Marina Schiermonnikoog
The marina is located on the south side of the island. This used to be the main harbour. In 1927 the island’s first mooring station was built. Before this point, people would be taken by horse and carriage to the ferry. In 1962, the current ferry port was built, which led to the old ferry port being used as the Marina.

Tidal marina
It is worth bearing in mind that the marina is a tidal marina. This means that the marina is only accessible by boat, during the few hours either side of high tide. The average depth of the access gully is 1.40 metres. It is advisable to purchase an up-to-date nautical map, as the depth of the gullies and sandbanks regularly change, due to strong currents and tidal patterns.
