Zoutkamp Travel Guide

If you like to fish at open sea you can go with one of the fishing ships.

Leaving from the harbour in Lauwersoog.

Every Whitsuntide, true to tradition, a fair and market are held in Zoutkamp.
On Whitsuntide Monday the shrimp fleet sets out to sea to catch the shrimp queen.
This day is called 'Vlaggetjesdag', flag day, for every ship carries flags.
Fishermen songs are sung by shanty choirs, which add to the atmosphere.
