Waterkaart

Waterkaart Nederland is a digital navigation resource designed to help boaters plan and navigate journeys across Dutch waterways. Its interactive map brings together practical information for recreational and professional skippers, with details intended to support safer, better-informed travel. Users can view bridges and locks, including live passage times, as well as waterway closures and disruptions, buoy positions, navigation markers, VHF radio channels, and current water levels.

The map also includes routes and route-related information, marinas, mooring locations, fuel stations, boat ramps, and rescue stations. Additional layers cover traffic signs, waterway mileages, sea conditions, currents, wind, AIS vessel positions, swimming locations, restricted areas, wrecks, and specialist routes for activities such as kayaking, paddling, surfing, and kitesurfing. Users can search for places, inspect coordinates in several formats, and report problems through the Vaarwegmelder. Waterkaart Nederland also provides a guide and supports GPX functionality. Available language options include Dutch, German, and English. Together, these features make the service a broad, map-based reference for preparing and managing trips on the water.
