Zuiderstrand – ‘The quiet beach’

Beyond the harbor you will find the Zuiderstrand. Many people find this one of the most beautiful parts of The Hague. Among Hagenezen it is also known as the quiet beach. It is the 'secret' alternative between Scheveningen and Kijkduin, directly behind the dunes, for everyone who loves the beach and the sea. Also highly recommended if you prefer not to be among the tourists.

Kijkduin - Charming seaside town

Kijkduin is a real family seaside town with activities for young and old. The wide beach slopes gently into the sea making it relatively safe for the little ones. The beaches of Kijkduin have a Blue Flag, a European quality mark for clean and safe beaches. Currently there is busy construction but you can still enjoy a beautiful view of the sea.
