Almere Stad is primarily known as a city in the province of Flevoland in the Netherlands; it is not particularly noted for having a major marine port. Almere Stad is part of the larger municipality of Almere, which is a relatively new city built on reclaimed land from the IJsselmeer lake. The city is well-connected by road and rail but does not have a significant maritime port infrastructure that supports large-scale commercial shipping or industrial marine activities.
However, the city does have some small marina and waterfront areas that cater to recreational boating and local water traffic. These facilities can be used by smaller boats for leisure activities, and they provide basic services such as mooring, refueling, and minor repairs.
General Specifications (for a small marina or waterfront area):
- Location: Eastern side of the IJsselmeer lake.
- Coordinates: Approximately 52°22′N 5°13′E.
- Types of Vessels: Small pleasure boats, yachts, and possibly small fishing vessels.
