Midweek Frisian lakes trip july 2027
Around Friesland: a unique sailing holiday in Friesland
Discover Friesland from the water during this special five-day sailing trip aboard the sailing ship Middelsee. Together with Lotte and Derk, you’ll not only enjoy a wonderful journey past the Frisian lakes, historic harbour towns and possibly even the Wadden Sea, but also experience the personal atmosphere of a small-scale sailing holiday.
This sailing holiday is ideal for adults who love nature, a friendly atmosphere and the freedom of sailing. There’s no rigid itinerary, just a relaxed trip where the wind, the weather and the group’s wishes all help to determine the course.
Sailing through Friesland, the Frisian Lakes and possibly the Wadden Sea
On Sunday evening, you’ll board the boat from 8.00 pm for a relaxed get-together with your fellow travellers. After your first night on board, the adventure begins.
During this multi-day sailing trip, we’ll explore the most beautiful sailing areas of Friesland. Depending on the weather and wind, we’ll sail across the Frisian Lakes, the IJsselmeer and the Wadden Sea. Along the way, we’ll visit charming harbour towns. We’ll also enjoy sweeping views, cosy moorings and that unique feeling that only a sailing holiday can offer.
It’s up to you how actively you want to get involved. Help with steering, hoisting the sails and navigating, or find a cosy spot on deck to enjoy the view, a good book or a pleasant chat.
Sail along with Lotte and Derk
What makes this trip special is the personal atmosphere on board. Lotte and Derk love sharing their passion for sailing, the water and exploring Friesland with their guests. With a small group, a relaxed and friendly atmosphere quickly develops, where everyone feels at home.
Eating together, sailing together and enjoying life on board together are an important part of this trip.
