Island Hopping Family Tour


Discover the beaches the way beach combers (“Jutters”) do and stand on the look-out for seals while sailing. A discovery-tour for you and your children in the ever changing domain of land, sea, fishermen, seals and birds!  


Our boat will bring you to two of the most beautiful West Frisian islands, Texel and Terschelling, as well as the former island Wieringen. Breathe in the fresh air on the windswept beaches, cycle through forest and dunes, visit the old villages and harbours, and enjoy the exceptional beauty of this part of The Netherlands. At Texel you will learn about the live of beach combers; the exciting stories will encourage you to go combing the beaches yourself! During a visit to Ecomare you will visit the seals and their young, but also during the sailing you might discover some seals on the sand banks! At Terschelling you can make beautiful rides, but you can also opt for a day building sand castles at the beach. These ingredients will make this holiday an unforgettable experience.
