In Friesland, you go on the water

If the name of the park literally means "between the lakes," then you know you won't escape the water. The recreation park is situated on the Meine Sleat, which forms a connection between the Sneekermeer and the Pikmeer. It is possible to rent a sloop or motorboat at Tusken de Marren to explore Friesland's water paradise. The Sneekermeer is one of the most famous lakes in Friesland. There is plenty of water fun to be had here, especially in the summer months. Learn to water ski or sail, go supping or canoeing and of course, you can always take a refreshing dip. And are you staying at Glamping in Friesland in August? Then take a look at the 'Sneekweek', Europe's largest inland water sailing event.

    The house has a beautiful location on the water. It is nicely furnished. Unfortunately, the rooms are a bit small and warm. We simply opened the window at night.
