Texel

A boat trip of less than half an hour will bring you to a location where peace and space are not a luxury but an everyday reality. You come here to get a breath of fresh air along the long sandy beaches. An infinite look, the roaring sea and almost no human beings around. Or on expedition through nature reserves: a spoonbill that flies over, a wild horse galloping through the Hoornder dunes. Even the greatest city lover must admit that the island hold you in its grip with its pure charm.

Enjoying in optima forma! A world in which time is on the background, the briny sea wind has free play. Where you - cycling through dunes, forest or slanted landscapes - can stop in order to taste pure, local produce from Texels companies. Cheese, strawberries, and asparagus: Bij Jef gladly suggests special addresses. And the remedy for the individual who feels homesick for 'the other side': many trendy shops and cosy bars.
