Zuiderstrand

Edit This

The zuiderstrand (south beach) is significantly less crowded than its counterpart on the other side of the port. It is not as easy to reach by public transport, as most of it is located behind the Westduinpark, with 226 ha. the largest park in The Hague. The beach is predominently visited by locals, since tourists generally don't even know this stretch of beach exists.

The beach runs from the port to The Hagues second beach resort, Kijkduin.

Noorderstrand

Edit This

Noorderstrand (North beach) is the busiest, liveliest and most famous of the two beaches. It starts at the WW2 Atlantik Wall fortifications at the Zwarte Pad and ends at the Noordelijk Havenhoofd. The famous Kurhaus with the Pier is located at this beach, as is the old Village of Scheveningen.
