Kijkduin is a special place on the coast of The Hague, with an atmosphere somewhere between quiet and lively. I remember a summer afternoon when I walked through the neighbourhood. It's an area that has the perfect balance between nature and the city. As soon as you walk into the dunes, you get the feeling that the hustle and bustle of the city is much further away. The beach in Kijkduin is wider than you might expect for a city beach, and the dunes are extensive and fairly quiet. There is always a spot where you can sit without it being too crowded. The sea, the sounds of the waves and the smell of salt water give the whole place a calming vibe. What I also like about Kijkduin is the combination of modern and traditional elements. The boulevard has a few trendy cafés and restaurants, but there are also old beach huts that exude the charm of days gone by. The contrast between the new and the old gives the neighbourhood a unique character. Besides the beach, Kijkduin also has a nice mix of green spaces and residential areas. You can enjoy walking or cycling, and everywhere there are small parks or open spaces that enhance the feeling of freedom. It's the place where you can sit in the evening and enjoy the sunset, accompanied by an ice cream or a drink. All in all, Kijkduin is a place you should visit not only for a holiday. It is a quiet but lively neighbourhood that has a lot to offer both locals and tourists. Whether you love the sea, nature, or just a relaxing day in a pleasant environment, Kijkduin has it all.
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living here for a few years but there's nothing here, everything is expensive and the summers are busy, luckily it is very beautiful with little mischief.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood feels safe and as far as I know, no unsafe things happen. There are also plenty of rubbish bins and there is rarely litter on the streets. Many schools in the area. Both primary and secondary schools. Everything is within walking distance. Think of the beach, shops and of course the sports clubs.
