Almere Haven

Almere Haven is the oldest part of Almere. Although Almere Haven does not have its own railway station, it is well-connected to Amsterdam and the rest of Almere by a good bus rapid transit system.

Almere Haven has a small harbour with ferry connections to the Dutch mainland, and is surrounded by large groves of poplars containing buzzards, foxes, small deer, and owls. The closest wooded areas are Het Beginbos and Province Flevoland || |- |align=center| Almere - Dronten - Lelystad - Noordoostpolder - Urk - Zeewolde |- |align=center| Netherlands |}
