Friese Hoek is a marina and water-sports access point situated directly on the IJsselmeer at the edge of Lemmer, a historic fishing town in Friesland.

Its position makes it a natural gateway between two distinct sailing environments: the open expanse of the IJsselmeer and, after passing through the historic Lemster locks, the sheltered Frisian lakes including the Tjeukemeer, Slotermeer, and Fluessen.

From this base, boaters can reach the Wadden Islands, the Wadden Sea, and day-trip destinations such as Enkhuizen and Medemblik, as well as lively inland towns like Sneek and Heeg.

The marina accommodates sailing yachts, motor cruisers, and smaller pleasure craft, with around 275 berths. Lemmer itself is also home to the Woudagemaal, a UNESCO World Heritage Site recognized as the largest steam-powered pumping station ever built.
