Destination information
IJMUIDEN, EASY ACCES TO HOLLAND'S MARQUE DESTINATIONS AND UNDISCOVERED LOCAL TOURISTIC GEMSTONES.
The port of IJmuiden is part of the municipality of Velsen and situated along the North Sea canal estuary, which discharges into the sea through enormous locks. It can look back on a very rich history, reflected in its landscape and architectural variety, which combines the peace of wide beaches and dune landscapes with historic country estates, woods and the hustle and bustle of a fishing port, fish market and local industry. With its unique location and excellent infrastructure and facilities, this versatile town offers a wide scope of local recreational activities, cultural sites and a convenient and quick access to a fast range of top hinterland marquee destinations.
Cruise ships moor at the berths of the Felison Terminal or Felison Cruise Terminal, which are conveniently located on the seaward side of the locks. The elegant terminal is able to harbour cruise vessel up to 295 meters, granting time saving access to the dynamic city of Amsterdam, which is only 30 minutes away. With close access to Schiphol Airport, the Felison Terminal & Felison Cruise Terminal provides the ideal starting point for the Baltic, the North Cape routes and City cruises.
IJmuiden offers a beautiful beachfront with extraordinarily wide beaches, a modern boulevard and cosy beach pavilions, which are open all year round. The Marina provides direct access to the sea and has been awarded no fewer than seven Blue Flags. Be adventurous and sail a blow cart on the wide beach, surf the waves, or go for a nature walk in the National Park Zuid Kennemerland with its protected dune landscape.
