Goeree-Overvlakkee used to be an island. At that time, the connection to the mainland was via the port of Middelharnis. At that time, fishing was the most important means of livelihood. Now the tourism industry is particularly important. With the sculpture 'Palmvissen' Jan Samsom wants to connect these things in a visual way and invite you to take an imaginary journey. At the head of the pier, it forms a beacon at Haringvliet.
