Ship spotting Port of Rotterdam

The world's largests ships

Rotterdam - Rotterdam is one of the largest and busiest ports in the world. At the new Nieuwe Maasvlakte 2 peninsula, the harbour can receive the largest ships in the world. And that's great news for ship spotters. Bring some food, drinks and a chair, sit down at the waterfront and get amazed by the most impressive ships of the world.

Shipspotting - only the largest ships

Ship observation is possible anywhere on the water as long as beautiful ships pass by. But to see the largest ships in the world, you have to be on the Maasmond at the entrance to the Nieuwe Waterweg. This is possible both in Hoek van Holland and from the Tweede Maasvlakte.

# 1 Slag Maasmond (Tweede Maasvlakte)

From Tweede Maasvlakte (towards port number 9880) you have a beautiful view of the arrival and departure of seagoing vessels.
This point is on the south side of the Nieuwe Waterweg.

# 2 Noorderpier (Hoek van Holland)

Also from the Noorderpier at Hoek van Holland you have a nice view of the arriving and departing seagoing vessels.
This point is on the north side of the Nieuwe Waterweg.
