Flower paradise
The nature and surroundings of Noordwijk continue to amaze you, every season.
In Noordwijk there is an explosion of floral scent and colour in April and May with many hectares of flower fields. Everywhere you smell and see daffodils, hyacinths and tulips. In addition, in the spring and summer there are also many flower events where you can go to for free.
From 10 August to 18 October you can enjoy the beautiful colours of the Dahlias. The Dahlia has something special. The Dahlia is a flower that catches the eye. She has so many beautiful shapes and colors. Due to the long flowering time of the summer flowers we can enjoy them to the fullest. Admire the colour splendour of more than 600 varieties of Dahlias at the Tulperij - an authentic flower farm. You can also pick your own bouquet to enjoy at home. In the garden of Keukenhof Castle there are as many as 100 varieties of dahlias in full bloom. Until mid-October, these popular flowers provide an overwhelming colour splendour on the historic estate. This makes it a wonderful place to enjoy a nice walk on the estate and the beautiful Dahlias in a historical setting. Go by bike along all the show gardens or book a tour at Renzy and go with an electric Twizy along these beautiful places. This period is also the right time to buy and plant the new harvest tulip bulbs (and other spring flower bulbs).
