Taking a boat trip and spotting seals from Den Helder? Come aboard the comfortable sloop, the Blue Sea Knight, and experience the unique Wadden Sea area in all comfort and tranquility from the water.

On the way, you will likely encounter seals, and the skipper may drop anchor at the sandbar "de razende bol" for a snack and a drink. In good weather, you can even try paddle surfing or swimming.

If you prefer navigating through inland waters, you can enjoy a day trip to the picturesque village of Kolhorn.

The boarding point from Den Helder is from Fort Westoever. This fort was built in 1825 to defend Den Helder and is nowadays a unique location by the water, complete with a restaurant, beer café, and brewery.
