Marina Den Oever is a sheltered, welcoming harbour situated directly on the IJsselmeer, at the point where it meets the Wadden Sea and the North Sea.

This makes it a natural nexus for boaters seeking access to both fresh and salt water, and an ideal base for weekend or longer cruising holidays. The marina welcomes both berth holders and visiting sailors without advance reservation.

Arriving boats can tie up at the reporting jetty and be assigned a berth from the harbour office. Onsite amenities include electricity, water, fuel, showers, restrooms, and Wi-Fi.

The harbour is also home to 27 houseboat berths, and the adjacent recreational park "Waterrijk Den Oever" occupies the nearby island of Wierhooft.
