Welcome to the Reitdiep city marina in Groningen. The colourful Scandinavian buildings ensure a special and magnificent backdrop to the marina, and the harbour is on the standing mast route of Delfzijl, through Groningen city to Friesland and the Lauwersmeer area and Wadden Sea area. In addition to a transient harbour, it is also a very attractive home port for motor cruisers, yachts and sloops. The harbour has excellent bathroom facilities, a diesel filling station, Wi-FI and a bicycle and sloop hire. The supermarkets, lovely shops and restaurant ensure a lovely atmosphere, and the city centre, with its museums, theatres and cinemas is easily accessible.

Experience Groningen from its best side, sail with the HeerenSloep through the beautiful city of Groningen. A fun and relaxed way and you sit first grade. Both in terms of view and luxury.

Admire the city from the water and take in the mediaeval mansions, wonderful bridges and many towers of this Hansa town. A trip through the canals with boat excursion company Kool provides an unparalleled view of the city for both tourists and Groningen inhabitants.
