Can we take the car to Schiermonnikoog?

No. Schiermonnikoog is a 'car-free' island. Only the islanders can make use of their cars. Guests must park the vehicle in the parking lot at the Groningen Lauwersoog, where the boat departs.

Taking a car there requires a special permit. In extremely exceptional circumstances this permit is issued by the Municipal Administration of Schiermonnikoog (http://www.schiermonnikoog.nl/).
