Ports

Harlingen is a historic trade and fishing port in Friesland, the Netherlands, with roots going back over a thousand years. Its charming old town features well-preserved streets and buildings, perfect for exploring on foot. Despite its small size, Harlingen has a lively atmosphere and was a proud port of call for the Tall Ships Races in 2022. With its gezellig pubs and welcoming vibe, Harlingen is an ideal stopover for any traveler.

Rostock, a vibrant city on the Warnow River, is home to one of the world’s oldest universities and rich in history and charm. One of its most picturesque spots is the Neuer Markt (New Market Square), where you’ll find the 13th-century Brick Gothic Town Hall and six beautifully restored gable houses dating back to the 15th and 16th centuries. With many more historical and cultural sights waiting to be discovered, Rostock is the perfect place to explore!
