“Zero emissions” isn’t just a slogan here. What if I told you that you are standing next to the first marina in the Netherlands designed for electric boats? This is E-Harbour Amstelkwartier. It is a haven for modern, eco-conscious boating.
E-Harbour Amstelkwartier marks a shift towards sustainable tourism. It embraces electric boating. This marina is ideally suited for Amsterdam-based shipping companies. They operate in the tourism sector. Tourism Group Holding took over the operation and ownership in 2021.
E-Harbour Amstelkwartier has 65 berths. These berths are for electrically powered passenger vessels. Think sloops, salon boats, and tour boats. These boats can be up to 20 meters long. For commercial boat charterers, E-Harbour Amstelkwartier is a safe home base. It provides facilities that support their business. The marina also has berths for floating storage and supply stations.
Charging many electric vessels at once needs a very powerful electricity grid. E-Harbour has the best charging facilities. Any type of vessel can quickly and fully charge. You can easily control the charging station with the AanUit.net app.
E-Harbour Amstelkwartier sits in the new Amstelkwartier district. It is near the Amstel River. You can easily get to the harbour by bicycle, public transport, or car. The Overamstel and Spaklerweg metro stations are a short walk away. The Amsterdam-Amstel train station is also nearby. There are several public parking options around the marina. The location allows for short-term parking. This is useful for loading supplies.
E-Harbour Amstelkwartier provides a secure environment. It has a modern access system. Only authorized people can enter the harbour. Cameras also monitor the marina. Harbour Master Garrincha Hallie is present regularly. You can always contact him by phone if he is away.
You can fill your boat’s water tank at the marina. The marina provides a drinking water installation. There are also waste containers. They are emptied regularly.
Since July 2021, Tourism Group Holding owns E-Harbour Amstelkwartier.
E-Harbour Amstelkwartier is more than just a marina. It is a statement. It is a commitment to a cleaner, greener Amsterdam. As you look out over the boats consider the future of boating.
