The ferry port of Hoek van Holland lies in the far west of the Netherlands at the mouth of the Nieuwe Waterweg into the North Sea and administratively belongs to the city of Rotterdam. Ferries have run from here to eastern England since 1893, with a break during the world wars; today Stena Line operates regular services to Harwich.
