Foreign climes close to home. Just off the coast, in the world known as
the Wadden Sea, lies a unique region which is typically Dutch yet exudes
a foreign charm. Get away from the mainland and give your spirit s a lift.
Leave it all behind for that wonderful island feeling. The age-old rhythm
of the tide. And golden beaches as far as the eye can see. The Dutch
Wadden Sea has five fabulous islands. Each with its own unique character.
An island for everyone!

Wadden Sea UNESCO World Heritage: a justified crown
The Wadden Sea has been on the UNESCO World Heritage List since June
2009. A justified crown for this unique tidal landscape. We are extremely
proud, especially since UNESCO follows very strict guidelines when it comes
to allocation of a World Heritage listing.
This puts the Wadden Sea on a par with world-famous natural wonders such
as the Grand Canyon in the United States and the Great Barrier Reef in
Australia, which were awarded World Heritage status by UNESCO in the past.
The Wadden Sea World Heritage Site encompasses the Dutch and German
parts of the Wadden Sea. It covers an area of almost 10,000 square
kilometres along a coastal strip about 400 kilometres long (see page 51).

Picturesque villages
The islanders were always a race apart, earning a living as merchant seamen,
fishermen and even whalers. The isolated location resulted in each island
developing its own particular culture, which is still visible in the various
picturesque villages. Wander around the narrow streets, where age-old church
steeples serve as your orientation point. One minute you’ll be face to face
with pretty, historical houses, and the next with friendly pubs, cafés, shops
and restaurants. There’s always something ne w to discover. And all this with
the warm hospitality for which the islanders are famous.

Te x e l ,
one big adventure
Texel, the largest of the five Dutch Wadden islands, is just off the coast of
North Holland. This island offers plenty of fun, thanks to its size and
especially its diversity. There’s no end to its natural beauty, and it’s
therefore no surprise that a large part of the island is a National Park.
Texel is also the place to be for the social life, as the island has no less
than seven friendly villages to wander around, for shopping, pavement
cafes and a lovely meal in the many restaurants.
8

Texel has no less than thirty
kilometres of uninterrupted sandy
beaches waiting for you. Whatever
takes your fancy, from lively De
Koog to the peaceful expanse of
De Hors in the South. Clean beaches
and sea, with lifeguards and good
facilities.... and all this for the price
of a boat ticket. Your car can come
along cheaply, too.
Sea flows in and many salt-loving
plants flourish. There are so many
migratory birds here that Texel
has the greatest number of bird
species in the world. The earthen
walls are typical of Texel, and these
traditional land dividers are home
to many protected species of plants
and animals. The countless sheep
are just as striking, and the island
teems with lambs in spring.
Breathtaking
natural beauty
L e t ’s g e t g o i n g
The Texel countryside is amazing.
Dunes, woodland, heathland,
polders, beaches, mudflats, hills
– you name it. The dune area
is unique, and is therefore a
designated National Park, with the
immense De Hors sandbank and De
Slufter dune slack where the North
Texel is all about walking and
cycling. There are many signposted
rambling routes, often through the
most beautiful countryside. The 80
kilometre Texel path around the
island is a real challenge. It’s fun
to explore the island by bike, too.
There are fantastic cycling routes,
such as the cycle path on the wet
side of the Wadden dyke. Or are
you looking for thrills? The beach is
ideal for kite flying, wind and kite
surfing or beach sailing.
Seven villages,
all of them fun
Want some social life? Shopping and
entertainment, promenading and a
meal out? You’re lucky, because Texel
has seven lovely villages. Den Burg
is the largest, it’s almost a town.
De Koog is a true seaside resort,
while the smallest, De Waal, is just
so peaceful... Oudeschild has a
lovely harbour, and Oosterend and
Den Hoorn are picture postcards.
And while on route to the lighthouse,
don’t forget De Cocksdorp and all its
shops and restaurants.

OOSTVLIELAND
Vlieland,
undisturbed tranquillity
For the authentic island feeling, take the boat to Vlieland. The peace and
quiet on the island will take you back to years gone by, and the lack of
cars only reinforces that feeling. Vlieland is calm and undisturbed, pure
and natural. The ultimate destination for peace and quiet. Picturesque is
the perfect word to describe Oost Vlieland, the island’s only village,
though it also offers everything you need. Including modern luxury, such
as the ne w marina. The well-stocked shops, quality restaurants and lovely
pavement cafes all seem to say: authentic Vlieland is totally up to date.

Day one of your trip gives you plenty of time to discover all the
secrets of the Friesian port of Harlingen. It’s a lively and fun town.
The beautifully restored warehouses on the various quays bear
witness to the trade with exotic faraway places of the past. More
than five hundred monuments and its unique Wadden Sea location
give this town its very special character. Next day, you’ll board the
ferry to Vlieland and then enjoy the panoramic views over the
Wadden area during this ninety minute crossing. You’ll soon be able
to spot Vlieland and its lighthouse on the 40 metre high Vuurboetsduin.
The virtually carless Vlieland is a true breath of fresh area and open
spaces! Walk and cycle to your heart’s content, exploring the island’s
picturesque village, enjoying nature, the wide sandy beach and the
rush of the North Sea in the background.
This package includes 1 night in hotel Zeezicht Harlingen and 2 nights
in hotel Zeezicht Vlieland. Including breakfast, bike hire on Vlieland
during your stay and a map with walks and cycling routes, and a cup of
coffee on the boat. Subject to availability, you will stay in a room with

The Brandaris lighthouse welcomes guests to the island from afar.
This 400 year old landmark is th e herald of a holiday that’s bound to be a
success, as Terschelling buzzes with life. Not only in the many great
restaurants, cafes and pubs, but also during all the events held here
throughout the year. This is the top island for entertainment. However,
those looking for peace and quiet have their own ‘secret’, because 80%
of Terschelling is beautiful countryside. De Boschplaat European Nature
Reserve is the stunningly beautiful highlight. Terschelling has
something for everyone.

Uniquely abundant nature
You might not expect it in the
Netherlands, but the southern
slopes of Terschelling’s dune
hollows have a proper desert
climate. Not many plants can grow
here, and that’s what makes the
area so unique, so typical of the
scenic diversity on Terschelling.
You’ll find beaches, woodland,
dunes, heathland, polders, mudflats
and tidal marshes, seawater and
freshwater. The island has the
Netherlands’ greatest variety of birds
and butterflies, let alone the nine
species of orchid which grow here.
Add all that to the wide open spaces
and it’ll be love at first sight.

Terschelling is the place to be for
the nightlife. The larger villages of
West-Terschelling and Midsland in
particular, come alive with brasseries,
chic French restaurants, cafes, pubs
and discotheques in the summer
months. In the daytime, you’ll
have plenty to see in the friendly
streets with their many shops. The
island’s businesses look forward to
warmly inviting you to try all their
specialties, which include cranberry
compote and patisserie, sea-lavender
honey, pondkoek (local spiced cake),
fresh bass with samphire.

Ameland,
monumental pleasure
Words can never do justice to Ameland. One simply cannot describe the
atmosph ere and the natural beauty. Not only that, but the island’s history
stretches back hundreds of years, covering the infamous era of the whaling
industry, for example. It is precisely that history which gives Ameland its
character. Numerous monumental buildings determine the look of the
villages. And nature lovers just won’t be able to get enough of the
beautiful dune areas of Het Oerd and De Hon. Only a 45 minute ferry trip
separates you from Ameland, ‘to get away from it all’.
36
37
On Ameland you’ll find the space and
freedom for a wonderfully relaxed
holiday. The 29 kilometres of beach
are ideal for more than just a brisk
walk. Would you like more? Take to
the hills. From the 24-metre high
Oerdblinkert, the island’s highest
dune, the vie ws are unforgettable.
The salty sea air will give you an
appetite. Luckily, Ameland’s beach
has the answer. The four fun beach
pavilions look forward to welcoming
you all year round.

Our Wadden Sea World Heritage
Unique on a g lobal scale!
In 2009, the Wadden Sea was placed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. A World Heritage Site is a monument, area
or landscape of a natural and/or cultural-historical value which is unique in the world. According to UNESCO, a
World Heritage Site must by definition be of ‘outstanding universal value, be irreplaceable and unique, and therefore needs to be preserved as part of the world heritage of mankind as a whole’. Moreover, the protection of the
World Heritage Site must be guaranteed. During a successful World Heritage conference, member states drafted a
convention in which they committed themselves to protect the globally outstanding cultural and natural heritage
within their boundaries and to safeguard it for future generations. More than 180 countries, including the Netherlands and Germany, have now signed the Convention. The Wadden Sea World Heritage Site encompasses the Dutch
and German parts of the Wadden Sea. It covers an area of almost 10,000 square kilometres along a coastal strip
about 400 kilometres long. The Danish section of the Wadden Sea will soon become part of this World Heritage
Site, once the Danish have completed the procedure required to make their part of the Wadden Sea a National Park.
Experience the Wadden Sea
Low and high tide alternate every
six hours in the Wadden Sea, bringing about stunning changes
to the landscape almost every
minute of the day. During low tide,
it is possible to walk far out onto
the mud-flats and, in some areas
and under the supervision of an
experienced guide, even from the
mainland to one of the islands or a
sandbank. You are actually walking
on the seabed! Walking on the
mud-flats, you will hear only the
sound of wind and the calls of the
birds. See for yourself how the landscape has been gradually sculpted,
and is still being sculpted by the
very special combination of wind,
water and waves, the forces of
nature, since the last Ice Age. While
a flock of geese cackle as they fly
over, an army of waders cautiously
pick their way over the ne wlyexposed seabed, looking for worms
and shells. The salty air and mudrich waters fill your senses. Cockles
and worms under your feet cause
movement in the water and sand.
Prawns flash by your ankles and you
can see flatfish close-by in the shallow water. Bubbles from small algae
rise to the surface. Crabs, cockles,
mussels, starfish and hermit crabs
are laid bare by the receding water.
You even have the privilege of
watching seals sunbathing in their
natural environment on a sandbank,
but please keep your distance.
The Wadden Sea is unique

Schiermonnikoog,
immeasurable natural artwork
www.vvvschiermonnikoog.nl
SCHIERMONNIKOOG
Schiermonnikoog may well be the smallest Dutch Wadden island, but
there’s nothing modest about its countryside. This is confirmed by the fact
that the entire island enjoys Nat ional Park status. And talking about size,
Schiermonnikoog has the widest beach in Europe. An immeasurable
sandban k that will quicken the pulse of anyone who loves silent open
spaces. Don’t expect major amusements on Schiermonnikoog, as the
unique attraction of this island lies in its unspoilt character and vast
natural beauty. The island is one big work of art, signed by Mother Nature.

September. They include boat transport between the islands, transport to and

also include cycle hire and trips to museums and other places of interest.
Often, you can extend your stay and can make combinations with other hotels or
guesthouses. Whatever your wishes, island hopping is a must for the real island
enthusiast. Island hopping packages are available from € 335 per person. The
