Before the crowds arrive and the chaos begins, we’ll already be on the water, coffee in hand, with a front-row seat to one of the most breathtaking nautical spectacles in the world.

How to get there

Getting to the boat boarding location

There are several convenient ways to reach the boat boarding point during SAIL. Please allow extra time for travel due to expected crowds around the SAIL area.

SAIL is easily accessible via public transport. We recommend taking the train, tram, or metro to Amsterdam Sloterdijk, then taking a shuttle to the boarding area.

The shuttle buses depart on a regular basis from the north side of the station and take you comfortably and quickly to the event area. The travel time is about 15-20 minutes, depending on traffic. Make sure you get on the right bus, there are two, SAIL Village Westhaven and SAIL Village Amerikahaven

  • Shuttle buses run daily from three hours before your boarding time begins until one hour after it ends.
  • You do not need a special ticket for the shuttle bus
  • On site, follow signage and directions from staff for boarding location.

Parking near the SAIL Village is limited. We can pre-book a limited number of parking spots. Contact us if you need a parking space. Alternatively, park at Amsterdam Sloterdijk and continue by shuttle or taxi.

Please note that there are no charging points for electric cars on or right next to the event site. We recommend planning an alternative charging location outside the area in advance. Public charging stations nearby have limited availability during busy days.
