Hellingshaven

Hellingshaven sits right on the Prinses-Margriet-Canal and Pikmar, giving you a direct launchpad toward the IJsselmeer and Wadden Sea without any faff. It's a modern, spacious harbour with a genuinely quiet feel, well sheltered from westerly winds and with berths organised by boat size so you're not squeezed in awkwardly. Grou itself is one of Friesland's most charming watersports villages, worth exploring beyond just the dock.
