    Tips

    August 14, 2025

    Laaksum, or Laaxum in Frisian, is a tiny fishing port on Lake IJsselmeer, once known for its flounder and eel fishing. After the construction of the Afsluitdijk in 1932, fishing virtually disappeared. Now, this idyllic spot, with a few houses and a former fish processing shed (now a restaurant), attracts many cyclists and day trippers.
