About Passantenhaven Nieuwegein
The Passantenhaven is intended to offer passing pleasure craft the opportunity to spend the night. The port is conveniently located in relation to the Amsterdam-Rhine Canal, the Merwede Canal and the Lek. Every year, the port receives many passersby who do not want to miss the municipality of Nieuwegein during their cruise. The old Vreeswijk, the various museums and the hospitality of the harbormasters are just some of the reasons to visit the port. The port receives mainly motor boats (up to fifteen meters) and small sailboats (up to a meter and a half draft).
