Grab a drink at 't Smalle. Its terrace sits right beside the canal, offering a perfect early view of the water and light before the crowds gather.
16:01
Walk to the Anne Frank House. The 57-minute walk from KunstRAI is long, so start here early to secure your spot near the building for the sunset view. Note that tickets must be bought online in advance.

Watch the sunset. The sun sets toward the SW, aligning with the canal views from this historic site as the golden light fades.
17:26
End the evening in Sarphatipark. It is a 21-minute walk from the anchor and offers a quiet place to sit in the summer as the city settles down.
Local tip
The Anne Frank House requires advance online booking. Only 20% of tickets are available on the day, so plan ahead. 't Smalle has a beautiful terrace but can get busy, so arrive early for a drink.
