The kayak club k. v. Winsum, located along the Schouwerzijlsterweg on the Winsumerdiep, serves as a convenient water-access point just outside the town of Winsum.

To reach it from the N361, cross the bridge, turn left at the roundabout toward Schouwerzijl, then left again. Parking is available a short distance away along the driveway to the water treatment plant.

From this launch point, paddlers can explore the Winsumerdiep, a historic waterway that has served the region for centuries, connecting Winsum to the broader network of canals and rivers including the Reitdiep.

Heading west leads to the Schaphalsterzijl locks, where a movable weir with a button-operated mechanism allows kayaks to pass through.
