These are water points in Rotterdam Centre

Rotterdam wants to reduce the use of plastic bottles and encourage residents and visitors to drink tap water. That is why the municipality, together with Evides, is installing more and more taps in the city. These are free to use and provide the same pure drinking water that comes out of the tap at home.

How does water tapping work?

A water tap can be recognized by its compact design, usually a column or fountain with a button or lever. You can easily refill your own bottle, or take a sip if you don't have anything with you. The taps are available all year round, although the supply may be temporarily shut off in the event of frost.
