Scheveningen
The Netherlands' most populated coastal town is by far Scheveningen. The distance to The Hague's city center is only ten minutes by automobile. The coastline is akin to Jersey Shore in the United States or Brighton in the United Kingdom. Even in the winter, it is constantly very busy, and the boardwalk is very crowded. This contributes to Scheveningen's allure. You will witness all different types of individuals who are all there to have a good time since it exudes an atmosphere of "everyone is welcome."
When you're on the boulevard and looking out toward the ocean, keep in mind that traffic will increase as you move further to the left. With fewer visitors and more local Dutch people, the right side of the street, in the direction of "het Zwarte Pad," is a little more peaceful. There are many surf schools in Scheveningen, which is ideal for surfing.
Additionally, Scheveningen has a ton of hip beach clubs and eateries that will give you the impression that you are on vacation somewhere other than the Netherlands. Beach blahs got you down? The Casino, the Pathe Cinema, and the Circus Theater are all situated in a triangle that is only two minutes from the boulevard.
