The Coastguard is located at the naval base in Den Helder. To visit us, you need to make an appointment. So make an appointment with your contact and remember to bring a valid ID. This must be shown to the guard in order to gain access to the naval base. Keep in mind that it takes extra time to get to the naval base, because you have to report to the guard. And finally: the Coastguard is a crisis organisation. This means that if an incident occurs, the visit can be cancelled. This may happen at (very) short notice.
