For sun lovers and sports lovers
Scheveningen seaside resort has several beaches where you can enjoy the sun and the sand. The Boulevard beach, near the Pier and Kurhaus, is an excellent place to go if you love the sun as well as a bustling crowd with many beach pavilions to entertain you.
The beach near Scheveningen’s harbour is quieter and great if you have children. Here, too, there is space for surfing and beach volleyball. There are some great restaurants with a view of the harbour.
And finally, there is the zwarte pad, or black trail, beach – a wonderful place to lie in the sun or go for a drink and a bite at one of the many beach pavilions. It is a bustling place in summer, with many great parties.
The Scheveningen Pier
The Pier is one of the most notable icons in Scheveningen. Nearly 400 metres long and 45 metres high, it runs straight into the North Sea and offers a beautiful view of the village.
