Jachthaven Nauerna

Jachthaven Nauerna lies on side-canal D of the Noordzeekanaal, right in the middle between the North Sea and the Markermeer, making it an ideal starting point for day trips through the Zaanstreek or to the Uitgeestermeer. The marina has 400 berths for boats from 6 to 25 metres, and every berth has its own 16-amp shore power connection and free drinking water. Visiting sailors are welcome and pay their berth fee at the harbour office or via I-Marina's QR code; the office is closed on Mondays, when payment is made via the QR code instead. The bridge in front of the marina, the Nauernasche brug, has a clearance of 3.4 metres but is opened regularly: weekdays 6:00-22:00, Saturdays 7:00-20:00 and Sundays 9:00-19:00 during the sailing season from 1 April to 31 October. The marina offers toilet, shower and laundry facilities with a washing machine and dryer; tokens for the showers and machines are bought at the harbour office, and a 5-minute hot shower costs 1 euro. There is a fast charging station for electric vehicles, the option to exchange gas bottles, and free loaner bikes for visiting sailors and permanent berth holders, while electric bikes, electric sloops, SUP boards and canoes can be rented. Havenrestaurant Nauerna is open Monday to Sunday 10:30-21:30 (closed Tuesdays), offering indoor and outdoor seating with a view over the marina. The marina has flown the Blue Flag since 2013 and also carries the Green Pennant.
