BBQ at sunset

Relaxing evening sailing

Would you like to end the day in an informal and atmospheric way? Step on board for the BBQ at sunset package. As the sun slowly sinks into the IJsselmeer, you and your colleagues or business relations can enjoy the tranquility of the water, a good glass of wine, and a freshly prepared barbecue.
