Just a small fishing village on the edge of the IJsselmeer, Urk is a world away from the hustle and bustle of the Netherlands’ bigger cities. With its colourful houses, narrow streets and working fishermen, Urk feels like a slice of traditional Holland. The locals are friendly and welcoming, and there’s a great atmosphere in the village pubs and restaurants. Urk is a great place to relax and soak up some Dutch culture, and it’s also a great base for exploring the surrounding area, including the beautiful De Weerribben-Wieden National Park.
