THE BEACH

A paddle in the sea. Sunbathing. Swimming. Walking. The sandy beach of Noordwijk between Katwijk and Zandvoort stretches over an impressive 13 kilometres. Noordwijk aan Zee is popular with residents, day trippers, Dutch and foreign tourists, and business travellers. Enjoy it on a lovely summer’s day or blow away the cobwebs during a storm. The beach is beautiful every day, whatever the season.

BULB FIELDS

Every spring, the Bollenstreek, the bulb-growing area of Holland, bursts into life. With vast rainbow coloured fields of vibrant tulips, hyacinths and narcissi. Do travel through this region if you can! And, if you want to avoid traffic, just hop on a bike.
