What is there to do in Volendam? The fact that Volendam is known for its famous dike, the fish auction and its rich history is well known to many people. But there is so much more to do! We are happy to give you a number of tips and in this way let you get acquainted with the real Volendam.
Renting a bike or electric vehicle: Whether you choose to rent an bike or an e-scooter with us, we will make sure you head out with tips and tricks to get the most out of your day. We have 3 routes to choose from.
Eating a fish on the Dike of Volendam: Discovering Volendam on an empty stomach is not a good idea. We recommend that you try a tasty fish on the Dike. It’s one of the best places in the Netherlands to do that, as the village still largely lives off the catch. So opt for the typical eel sandwich or go for the Hollandse Nieuwe herring or a portion of fried fish. Vishandel Lekkers seems to be a good choice, although you can also go to the various other stalls.
Wandering through the Maze: De Dijk is best known in Volendam, while the maze is also very interesting. Dive into the side streets and see that everything looks the same. The historic heart is great to see and taking a nice walk through it is an activity that is fun for young and old.
Visit the Volendam Museum: The Volendam Museum is a great place to learn about the history and culture of this Dutch town. The museum houses a number of artifacts and exhibits, as well as a reconstruction of a traditional Volendam home.
Take a boat ride in Waterland: There’s no better way to see w than from the water, and there are plenty of boat tours available that will take you around the canals and out into the surrounding countryside. You might even spot some of the resident storks that make their nests on the rooftops!
