Berths and facilities

With no fewer than 240 berths for boats of up to 20 metres, Jachthaven 't Loo offers a true oasis for water sports enthusiasts.

Your boat can even safely spend the winter here.

Discover the boating possibilities

The Kraaijenbergse Plassen are a true paradise for water sports enthusiasts. Sailors can take endless trips here, thanks to the vast 450-hectare area, the largest inland lake along the rivers in the Netherlands.

Motor boaters will also enjoy themselves here, with access to the Grave-Sambeek sluice gate and connections to the Mookerplas, the Paesplas near Gennep, and the dead Maas arms near Heijen and Boxmeer. Thanks to the proximity of the Maas-Waal canal, even more extensive trips are possible, such as a visit to Kampen or the IJsselmeer.

Passengers and overnight stays

Whether you make a short stopover or want to stay longer, as a passer-by or with a group, Jachthaven 't Loo welcomes you with open arms. You can moor at the reporting jetty (jetty A) and then report to the harbour master. Make use of all the facilities the marina has to offer, including a clean and modern sanitary building.

Not only individual passers-by are welcome, but also groups making a trip together are welcome for one or more days/nights. Passers-by wishing to stay overnight can moor at the reporting jetty (jetty A) and then report to the harbour master.
