Travel guide
Get around
As with all small towns in Holland, a bike is by far the best way to get around.
See
There are a handful of older churches and houses in Noordwijk Binnen, particularly clustered around the Voorstraat and the two large churches.
Do
Go to the beach, one of the best in this part of Holland. Make sure you take time to head into one of the beach pavilions at the end of the day and grab a drink. These pavilions are every 500m and are disassembled in the winter. Explore the dunes by bike. Take a boat trip to the Kaag.
Eat
Noordwijk, especially Noordwijk aan Zee is focused very much towards tourists. Along the beach, you will find a pavilion roughly every 500 metres. Most of them get dismantled for the fall and winter.
Sleep
Noordwijk has a large number of hotels, ten of which are listed here.
Go next
Noordwijk and Noordwijkerhout border several similar cities and towns, such as the seaside towns of Zandvoort and Katwijk. Other bordering places of interest are Lisse, famous for the Keukenhof tulip fields, and Oegstgeest. Larger cities nearby are The Hague and Leiden to the south and Haarlem to the north.
