What makes Enkhuizen so special?
 

Eating fish at the Wednesday market, shopping in the Westerstraat, catching a film in the Drommedaris cultural center, taking a dip in the indoor swimming pool, eating out in one of the nice restaurants or having a drink in a 'small cafe at the harbor'.  But there is much more ...

Museums
In every season there is plenty to see in one of the fascinating museums in Enkhuizen. The small-scale Flessenscheepjesmuseum is certainly worth a visit. The Zuiderzee Museum brings the stories to life of people who used to live around the Zuiderzee. See, hear, feel, taste and smell the daily life around the Zuiderzee.
