See and do

There is always something to see and do in Zandvoort.

Clearing your head in the dunes

I love being outdoors. It allows me to clear my head. I enjoy all the nature around us. The Waterleidingduinen are my favourite place; you can walk there in all seasons. It’s different every season, which keeps it special. If you look around carefully, you can see a lot. In winter, we once saw a fox jumping in the snow!

The thrill of kitesurfing: soaring high into the sky

When the wind is favourable, I can be found on the beach kiting. Three years ago, I learnt to kitesurf on holiday. I now have all my own equipment. Kitesurfing is cool to do. Especially because I can jump high, then it’s like flying for a moment! Learn it yourself at one of the surf schools!
