LOOKING FOR A BEACH HOLIDAY IN THE NETHERLANDS? 

You no longer have to travel to the south for the sun, the sea and the beach. For your dream holiday you can simply go to the most beautiful coast in the Netherlands: that of North Holland.

Long airport queues, delays, traffic jams and exhausting flights, many travellers are tired of them. It’s not only stressful but also harmful to the environment. Luckily, it’s no longer necessary. A wonderful beach holiday can be found right here in your own country. The North Holland coast offers everything you need: peace, space, nature and the lively atmosphere of seaside towns. At Goudkust, you will find luxury holiday homes and villas designed to give you that true holiday feeling, without the long journey. 

Our accommodations are located in some of the most popular seaside towns in North Holland, such as Bergen, Bergen aan Zee, Schoorl, Alkmaar, Heiloo and Egmond aan Zee. Each destination has its own charm: 

• Bergen is known for its artist community and cosy terraces. 

• Schoorl attracts walkers and cyclists with its unique dune landscape. 

• Alkmaar offers culture and history, with the famous cheese market as its highlight. 

• Egmond aan Zee lies directly on the beach and has a lively boulevard. 

Whether you are looking for a romantic getaway, an active family holiday or a peaceful retreat surrounded by nature, there is always a location that suits your wishes! 

More and more people are rediscovering the beauty of the Dutch coastline, and for good reason: 

• Beautiful surroundings: North Holland is famous for its expansive sandy beaches and picturesque dunes. Perfect for long walks, bike rides or simply a relaxing day at the beach. 

• Fun for people and pets: Many beaches and accommodations are dog-friendly. That means your four-legged friend can join, making the family complete. 

• Pleasant climate: In summer, the Netherlands enjoys on average six to seven hours of sunshine per day. Temperatures are usually comfortable, without the extreme heat that can be found further south. 

• Flexibility: Staying close to home makes it easy to extend, shorten or even book your holiday spontaneously whenever the sun comes out. 

When thinking of a beach holiday in the Netherlands, many people immediately picture busy spots like Zandvoort or Scheveningen. While these are wonderful locations, they can also be crowded. For true peace and relaxation, the northern beaches are the perfect choice. Here, you'll find wide, tranquil beaches that are just as beautiful, sometimes even more so, without the hustle and bustle. 

Take for example Bergen aan Zee, a charming seaside town known for its wide, quiet beaches and the impressive dunes behind them. The village has a cosy yet sophisticated atmosphere, with welcoming beach pavilions where you can enjoy food and drinks all year round. Thanks to the unique combination of nature, art and charm, Bergen aan Zee offers not only relaxation by the sea but also inspiration in the nearby artist's village of Bergen. 

A holiday on the North Holland coast offers so much more than sunbathing or swimming. You can also: 

• Cycle through expansive dune areas and scenic polders. 

• Walk through picturesque villages and nature reserves. 

• Enjoy fresh fish and local specialities at atmospheric beach pavilions. 

• Visit landmarks such as the Cheese Market in Alkmaar or the lighthouse in Egmond. 

For families, there are countless activities as well: climbing dunes, beachside playgrounds and child-friendly museums in the area.
