Where Are These Sites ? ?

Post by drayman86 »

Ganja Tours operator will be out of town when I am IN town. :cry:

Was looking forward to seeing or getting info. on some of the North Sea beaches that are pictured on their site.

Can anyone tell me about where these are?

Cheers!

I can't tell which beaches they are although I know Zandvoort is a popular beach destination for locals and tourists although I've never been.

For something a bit different try Wijk ann Zee, I lived there for a few months and it's a nice little village with a nice beach (shame about the nearby steel works). Get the train to Beverwijk where there are 3 coffeeshops, the best being Taffne and Splif (in my opinion) and then a 5 min bus ride to Wijk ann Zee which used to have a very smoker friendly bar but I am not sure if this is still open.

I thought about Scheveningen, Hoek of Holland has some 671s too if I remember correctly, but aren't they a touch far out for a bike tour from Amsterdam. :idea:

The link Trad's suggested is a great resource. After pecking around a bit I landed here:

I have been using that source to plan a 1 week WW11 RV trip through Holland, Belguim, France and Germany....starting at Eban-Emael and ending in Berchtesgaden.
