What to do in Kijkduin Beach? Are there any attractions or entertainments in region?

Extremes can be moderate or excessive, so if you are a fan of the first type, than Kijkduin Beach welcomes you, offering kite and windsurfing. If on the contrary, it is not your kind of activity, we recommend you to find another beach, since the presence of lots of kite surfers on water can have a negative impact on the comfort of your leisure.

The quality of service and food were commendable, although the presentation of the menu could be improved as it was slightly deceiving. The menu appeared to be extensive, but upon closer inspection, it was relatively concise. Nevertheless, we relished the dishes we ultimately selected.

6 Pleasant

A delightful spot to unwind with a refreshing beverage and relish some scrumptious nachos while basking in the sun-kissed beach. Regrettably, my culinary experience was not up to par as the salmon dish I ordered was underdone and the accompanying sweet sauce did not complement it well.

8 Very good

Kijkduin boasts a newer beach location that is a must-visit for burger enthusiasts. However, their nachos failed to impress, with cheese that seemed to be straight out of a tube. The staff's service was mixed, ranging from indifference to rudeness. Nonetheless, the outdoor terrace is spacious and well-designed, making it a great spot for a quick meal. Recently, we visited Hudson again and were pleasantly surprised by the improved quality of their nachos. The staff was friendly, and the burgers were delicious, leading us to upgrade our rating to four stars.

The culinary delights served at this beachside haven are truly delectable, accompanied by the warm hospitality of the amiable waitstaff. The ambiance of the location is equally pleasing, creating a delightful experience for all who visit.

2 Very poor

The beach offers a breathtaking scenery of the sunset that is truly mesmerizing, but regrettably, the staff's sluggishness was a letdown. We had to wait for 20 minutes, but they seemed more engrossed in capturing photos of the sunset than attending to us, so we had no choice but to leave.
