Frederiksdorp is a former coffee and cocoa plantation. In the 18th century this plantation was founded by a German man from Prussia named Johan Friedrich Knoffel. The history of Frederiksdorp recalls both European and African traditions. Frederiksdorp is centrally situated along the Commewijne river, making it an important logistic town. Now a days Frederiksdorp features adventurous activities like dolphins spotting, long cycling- and hiking trails, visiting fishing villages, sea beaches, mangrove forests. Activities that the surrounding plantations don’t have.

This former plantation with the original plantation houses and even a former police station, has been declared a world heritage site and is recently transformed into an beautiful resort. The comfortably furnished apartments are all equipped with air conditioning, wifi and hot water. There is also a swimming pool with a beautiful pool deck and a large river terrace. On the estate fruit is planted that you can pick yourself: oranges, mangoes, papayas and coconuts. The plantation also has a good restaurant and a well-stocked bar where you can enjoy typical Surinamese meals. Optional tours are offered in the vicinity, from educational to adventurous tours. There are also bikes to rent for those who want to explore Frederiksdorp on their own.

Frederiksdorp is also an excellent base for other tours throughout the Commewijne district.
