What to do in Strand Kijkduin? 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 Strand Kijkduin 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.

I had a truly unforgettable dining experience at this beachside eatery. The barbecue plate was an absolute delight, boasting a perfect harmony of succulent meats and fresh vegetables. The chefs prepare everything on their impressive terrace grill, which adds to the anticipation of the meal. Although it took around half an hour to get to the table, the wait was well worth it. The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, and the stunning view of the beach only added to the charm of the place. I am already looking forward to my next visit.

Although the service could be improved, ordering through QR codes is a unique experience that takes some getting used to. The fries may have tasted slightly stale, and the overall quality of the food could use some enhancement. However, the stunning view of the beach is definitely worth the visit. In comparison to the crowded Scheveningen beach, this one is pleasantly less busy.

If you're looking to steer clear of the hustle and bustle of touristy beaches along the North Sea, look no further than this hidden gem. Here, you can fly a kite, take a refreshing dip in the water, and indulge in some (admittedly expensive) snacks and drinks. Public restrooms are available for your convenience, as are the accessible dunes with their scenic hiking trails and diverse flora and fauna. Families with little ones can rest easy knowing that this beach is safe for all ages. To get here, simply hop on Tram 12 and ride it all the way to Duindorp - the last stop. And if you're in the mood for some fresh seafood, the nearby harbor and fish markets are just a short stroll away. For a more serene beach experience, head further south to Kijkduin.

I have visited this charming beach spot on a few occasions and it never disappoints. The ambiance is perfect for a relaxing evening of dining and unwinding by the ocean. The prices are reasonable for a beachside establishment and the cuisine is truly delectable. I especially adore the communal platters that are available to share with friends and family. Without hesitation, I would highly suggest this spot to anyone seeking a delightful beachside experience.
