Tour of Europe 04 2016
Day 8
Greeted by this beautiful and peaceful sight!
Hellevoetsluis features a six magnificent ports with a total of about 2,000 moorings.
The ports provide a wonderful base for boaters who love the wide waters of the Haringvliet and the sea.
From Hellevoetsluis it is possible to both inland waterways and the sea, also to sail in the Zeeland and South Holland Delta.
Hellevoetsluis is located on the Haringvliet with the sea, beach and dunes close by, on the extreme southern edge of the Rijnmond and Europoort areas, close to the broad Zeeland landscape.
The name translates as “lock at the foot of the Helle”.
The Helle was a small local river which disappeared over time.
