Lauwersoog – Fishing Harbor of Groningen, the Gateway to the Wadden Sea

In the north of the Netherlands, in the province of Groningen, lies Lauwersoog. This active fishing harbor on the Wadden Sea is the ideal base for exploring the eastern Wadden Sea. From Lauwersoog you can sail toward Schiermonnikoog, Rottum, and Ameland, passing deep channels, high sandbanks, and vast tidal flats. Here, you experience the Wadden Sea in its purest form.

Lauwersoog is known as a traditional fishing harbor and as the gateway to Lauwersmeer National Park. It is a popular place to enjoy fresh fish, take walks along the harbor, or experience peace, darkness, and a clear starry sky. For sailors, Lauwersoog is a special destination thanks to its unique combination of nature and open water.

Its location between the Wadden Sea and the Lauwersmeer makes Lauwersoog perfect for varied sailing trips. Discover calm inland waterways, small islands, and sail inland to Dokkum or Leeuwarden. Visit the WEC (World Heritage Centre Wadden Sea) or experience the Wadden Sea up close on a guided mudflat walk. Lauwersoog is the place for those who want to sail and truly experience the Wadden Sea.
