The Westhaven Shuttle Service takes you by water from the Chocolatemakers-Rederij Spliethoff-Zeemanshuis business cluster in Suezhaven to Havenexperience 'The Terminal', a unique location at the head of the Westhaven where you can learn all about port businesses and professions. The terminal is a 10-minute walk from Sloterdijk Station

During the approximately 30-minute tour, you will feel the enormous dynamics of the Westhaven, where all kinds of bulk goods are brought in and out. Including cocoa beans, coal, orange juice, paper pulp and aluminum. The shuttle passes, among others, the port companies VCK Logistics, C.Steinweg-Handelsveem and the terminal of HES-OBA Bulk (coal).

Seamen's Centre
Upon arrival at the event location in Zone 4, visitors are welcomed to a photo exhibition about the port in the Seamen's House (Seamen's Centre).
