Authentic Volendam, pearl of the Zuiderzee.

Close to Amsterdam you will find an attractive traditional village. Volendam, former fishing village by the IJsselmeer. Nowadays there is little fishing and the inhabitants live off mainly from tourism. The cozy harbor is a series of restaurants, bars and souvenir shops. Watch the entering and leaving of traditional boats on one of the many terraces in the harbour. Volendam was once famous for its eel fishing.
Combine Volendam with the former island of Marken. The ferry sails frequently
