Scheveningen
The Netherlands' most famous seaside resort, with a long sandy beach, a pier with a Ferris wheel jutting into the North Sea, and the classic Kurhaus Hotel.
Scheveningen is The Hague's seaside district, with a sandy beach stretching about 3 km. In summer, beach bars line the shore. The pier extends into the North Sea and features a Ferris wheel and a bungee tower. The Kurhaus Hotel on the waterfront is a classic 19th-century building. At the fishing harbor to the north, you can eat herring and seafood, and every June there is a “New Herring Festival.” From Rotterdam, it takes about 50 minutes by train to The Hague and then a tram to Scheveningen.
