Large campsite, with lots of activities in and around the campsite. The beach is within walking distance. The campsite is beautifully situated in the dunes and there’s a bus stopping in front of the entrance, which puts you in Zandvoort or Haarlem in no time. But really highly recommended, and if you take it easy in the morning, you might even come across a fox 😀.

Children can be fussy and often find it difficult to sit still for a bit longer. This can make for a challenge when you want to enjoy a nice family meal. Fortunately, there are several restaurants in Zandvoort geared towards children so you can have a nice meal yourself.
If it rains for a day, you are less likely to head out. Then it is good to know that there are plenty of places for children to have fun indoors.

The aim of the joint national 06-wristband campaign is to make beachgoers aware of how they can prevent a child from getting lost. The 06 wristbands are a useful tool for this purpose. The 06 wristbands can be collected from Zandvoort’s two lifeguard stations.
1. Lubricate at least every 2 hours. 2. Keep children out of the sun between 12 noon and 3pm. 3. Keep children under 1 year old out of direct sun altogether. There are lubrication poles at various points on the promenade where you can get free sunscreen.
The beach is, of course, one big playground for children. Making sand castles, romping around with water and looking for shells. Several beach pavilions also have fun play equipment for children.
