Beach reserve Noordvoort

Noordvoort is a unique beach reserve that you can discover from the dunes. Nature has free rein here. You will find lakes in the dunes, get the chance to spot birds and feel as if you are alone in the world. 

The footpath leads you past three viewpoints where you can take a nice rest. 

Experience the beach and dunes

Here you will find more than sun, sea and beaches. Even outer space is at your fingertips.
