We completed the 10km Noordsee route starting at Buitencentrum Schoorlse duinen. Fantastic and varied walk through woods, heath, dunes and beach. A bit heavy going due to walking on sand most of the time. Wish we'd visited a couple of weeks earlier when the heather was in bloom.

This big dune and the whole nature area is wonderful to explore. Before walking, it is a good idea to buy a card with all routes in the Buitencentrum (5 min from there). All tracks are well indicated on the card and on the way (different numbers and colours), it is impossible to get lost. Dogs are mostly allowed on the leash, except in some restricted areas because of the cattle.

We visited early on a Sunday morning when the weather was still a bit hazy but it was 23 degrees. There was a little breeze and that made the trip even better! We parked close to the beach for a very reasonable price €6/day. There was a restaurant with large restrooms where it's possible to change your clothes. The beach was sandy and yellow/white. There was scattering of shells everywhere. walking into the water you could feel the shells under your feet. There was a shallow lagoon of sorts protected by dunes all around. Also a giant play ship for climbing and running. This area was great for our small children. We brought shovels and pails with us. There is lots of room for floating toys as well. We walked out to the North Sea and were pleasantly surprised by the clean beach. There were surfers and swimmers. Some people were flying kites as well. There are not a lot of vendors and such so it's a really calm and lovely place to visit for the day. We stayed until early afternoon, and activity was picking up but it was far from crowded or busy. I would highly recommend this location if you are looking for nature and peace. Swimming in the sea was refreshing but not too cold. The sand is soft and easy to play in. There is plenty to do if you like, but if you prefer to relax, it was also perfect for this!
