Good to Know:

Boarding

De Vriendschap sails from beach to beach. Boarding takes place via characteristic wooden piers. This mix of sand and wood makes for great photos but can be tricky for narrow tires. If you’re traveling with a stroller, wheelchair, or bike, please keep this in mind.

Bicylce Rents

Bicycles can be rented on Vlieland, too. It’s smart to book in advance!
