The Perseid meteor shower reaches its maximum in mid-August, which means that many shooting stars can be seen at night.

Experience an unforgettable evening at sea with our Falling Star Tours! From various Wadden Islands we sail into the dark, away from the city lights, to admire the starry sky in all its splendor. Our star expert on board shares fascinating stories about stars, planets and other secrets of the universe, while we glide gently over the water.
This special sailing trip, which lasts until midnight, offers plenty of opportunity to experience the magic of the starry sky. Due to the duration and late hour, this trip is less suitable for small children, but perfect for anyone who wants to discover the beauty of the night sky.
Overnight stay on board
After the trip there is the possibility to spend the night on board the Willem Jacob. The ship has one large hold with 16 beds, which makes it a unique and intimate experience. However, the number of places is limited, so early booking is recommended. Breakfast and bed linen are included in the price, so you will wake up well-rested after an evening under the stars.
