The Dutch beach

by Roggeveen - last update: Nov 23, 2005

Sand, wind, sea

Beach Castricum
The sand scrubs hard edges, makes everything round,
The wind round my head is the only sound
The sea takes my sorrows; it washes away
That's why the beach makes my day
Kitesurfing Castricum beach

Playing with the wind

The climate in Holland is not always suitable for tanning on the beach. But there are so many other activities you can do. The wind would like to play with you, go: kitesurfing, windsurfing or play with kites.

Along the shore

A run or walk along the beach is one of my favourite activities.

Cold and sunny beach

Beach at sunset. Always good for a pretty picture.

Dunes

The Dunes protect our country against the sea. A large part of the Netherlands is below sealevel. It's a rather harsh natural landscape, because not many plants can cope with the salt and winds from the sea.

Dunes 2

Many dune-areas are open for walking. So if you have seen enough of the beach, and don't want to walk back the same way, choose a path into the dunes.

Time to go

Storm is coming up. Time to go
