Flevoland is bordered in the extreme north by Friesland, in the northeast by Overijssel, and in the northwest by the lakes Markermeer and IJsselmeer. In the southeast, the province borders on Gelderland, and in the southwest on Utrecht and North Holland.
It is the world’s largest shipwreck graveyard. Over 450 wrecks have been found in Flevoland and can still be identified in the polder landscape by the three-metre-tall white and blue poles with a red ship on them.
Flevoland Province is unique as it was entirely reclaimed from the IJsselmeer Sea in the 20th century. This remarkable area features lush green landscapes and sprawling fields. Additionally, it has modern cities like Almere and Lelystad. Its innovative polder system showcases human ingenuity in land reclamation. Visitors can enjoy cycling along beautiful dikes.
