Region of Katwijk
Fancy a day at the South Holland coast? Katwijk is very popular for its beach and beautiful young dune areas. In the center of Katwijk you will find narrow streets that were supposed to provide protection against the strong wind from the sea. Going out in Katwijk is pure enjoyment. Sun, sea and sand of course, but also endless roaming through the dunes, a variety of museums and historical sights, shopping right behind the boulevard and at the end of the day settling on one of the many terraces or dining in an excellent (fish- )restaurant. There is also plenty to do for children in and around Katwijk.
