Sneekweek and the Waterpoort<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Because of its beautifully decorated Waterpoort from 1613, Sneek is also known as the Waterpoort City. Sneek enjoys international fame as the water sports paradise of the Netherlands. Even non-water sports enthusiasts know about that! The \u2018Sneekweek<\/a>\u2019 is a household word and the starting island on the Sneekermeer attracts countless holidaymakers. During this week, in addition to the start with a fleet scow and the international sailing races on the Sneekermeer, many activities are organised such as musical performances, markets, fun fair and outdoor caf\u00e9s with lots of live music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sneek, worth a visit<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
