A bit of history NOORDWIJK HAS A RICH HISTORY, STRETCHING BACK TO AROUND 2000 BC, THE DATE OF THE FIRST TRACES OF INHABITANCY. In 847 a Scottish Benedictine monk, named Jeroen, came to Noordwijk. He built a chapel and carried out missionary work. In 856 Jeroen of Noordwijk was tortured and beheaded by the Normans. After his death a Roman chapel was built in his honour, which quickly became a place of pilgrimage. In 1303 this chapel was replaced with a large stone church, the predecessor of the current Sint Jeroenskerk (Saint Jeroen’s Church). In 1429 Noordwijk was officially declared a place of pilgrimage by the Bishop of Utrecht. The most important relic was Saint Jeroen’s skull.

In 1450, however, the church was destroyed in a big fire, and the 16th century saw an end to Noordwijk’s status as a place of pilgrimage. Saint Jeroen’s skull vanished without a trace.

A TALE OF FISHERMEN AND BULBS The first inhabitants of Noordwijk were probably fishermen. The first ‘vierboet’ (lighthouse, a fire on a hill) was built in 1444, on the site of the current Grand Hotel Huis ter Duin. In 1474 Noordwijk had a fleet of 38 fishing boats called bomschuits which sailed from the beach. The last bomschuit sailed a hundred

years ago, in 1913. In the 18th and 19th centuries Noordwijk grew to become the most important producer of herbs in the Netherlands. The herbs were generally traded in Amsterdam and used medicinally.

Herb cultivation was followed by bulb cultivation. By the end of the 19th century tulips, daffodils, gladioli and other flowers were grown. The majority of bulb fields lie behind the dunes, where the sandy soil is ideal for cultivation. Noordwijk’s entries can also be admired at international bulb and flower exhibitions. Today the Noordwijk bulb area covers 311 hectares of land.

FLORAL SEASIDE RESORT OF EUROPE Noordwijk first became a seaside resort in 1866. Those were the days of bathing machines and operators, when days out at the beach were a fashionable activity for the elite. Sea water was believed to have a cleansing effect. In this period work started on the construction of Grand Hotel Huis ter Duin, which still catches the eye on the crest of the Noordwijk dunes. In subsequent years the beach also became accessible to the less well-to-do. The arrival of the steam tram enabled many holiday makers to visit the seaside. The unique combination of the beach and the colourful fields of flowers ensured that Noordwijk blossomed into the ‘floral seaside resort of Europe’.

ATLANTIKWALL MUSEUM IN NOORDWIJK A unique exhibition in a series of bunkers from the Second World War, situated among the dunes. It is also possible to visit the bunker complex on the North Dunes. Reservations are only required for the guided tours. More information is available from Noordwijk Visitor Center, telephone number +31 (0)71 - 362 38 87.

THERE IS NO OTHER PLACE IN THE NETHERLANDS WHERE SO MUCH KNOWLEDGE & KNOWHOW CAN BE FOUND ABOUT SPACE EXPLORATION AS IN NOORDWIJK. People from all over the world meet at ESTEC: the technical heart of ESA, the European Space Agency. It is therefore a matter of course that many congresses about this topic are organised in Noordwijk and most ESA projects are born in this seaside resort. At present, the Space Business Park is being built in Noordwijk. A building in the shape of an actual meteorite has been erected now. Many other ‘spacy’ buildings will rise here in the future.

Sometimes it seems as if there is only one kind of summer beach scene, with newspaper images of tropical heat, enormous crowds of visitors, a jumble of coloured parasols and windbreaks, and a typical story about record numbers and traffic jams. What is it about the beach? It has a magical power of attraction.

NOORDWIJK AT ITS BEST!

Little darling, it’s been a long cold lonely winter Little darling, it feels like years since it’s been here Here comes the sun Here comes the sun, and I say It’s all right...

summer

(GEORGE HARRISON)

Beaches are everywhere these days. Big cities even have city beaches for that summer feel.

But the vastness of beach and sea, the salty air, the sound of the waves, all have an enchanting charm which city and indoor beaches can’t hope to emulate. It’s telling that the mere suggestion of a beach atmosphere ensures customers.

The beach culture on the North Sea coast, including Noordwijk, has changed. The beach cafés of the past cannot compare with those of today. These days each has its own style.

One provides a trendy atmosphere for chilling out, another is child friendly with slides and trampolines, some have DJs and lounge music, and there are even five star cafés, with palm trees and beach waiter service. Some are open all year round, so that you can have lunch or dinner by the open hearth in winter.

North Sea beaches are spacious and peaceful, lulled by the rhythm of the sea. The combination creates a sense of freedom. After a day at the beach, the boulevard and the town stretching away from the sea allow visitors to extend their time outside into the evening, be it spring, summer, autumn or winter!

LIFE IS A BEACH!

Beach Life THERE ARE BEACHES, AND THEN THERE ARE NOORDWIJK’S BEACHES. EXPERIENCING NOORDWIJK’S BEACH IS LIKE TASTING SOMETHING DELICIOUS YOU’VE NEVER TRIED BEFORE: YOU EAT IT AND YOU JUST KNOW IT’S RIGHT. Watch the children playing in the ‘mini sea’ (shallow stretches of water on the beach, known as ‘kimmetje’ to the residents of Noordwijk), take pictures of the cool surfers and stay until the sea-gulls come to pick the crumbs out of the sand and the sun turns orange and sinks into the sea.

Have breakfast, lunch or dinner, or relax on the terrace of your pick of one beach cafés, whether you like it trendy, exclusive, ordinary, sporty or child friendly. If you can think of it, it’s here in Noordwijk!

SHELLS Noordwijk is the perfect place to find unusual beach treasures: the most common are shells of the sub truncate surf clam and American razor clam.

The shells with the brown, blue or grey stripes are old, sometimes even fossilised specimens of the sub truncate surf clam. There are many other beautiful shells, such as cockles, wedge shells, Baltic clams and whelks.

When the wind blows from the east little horn shells (like spiral staircases) get washed up.

JELLYFISH Not all jellyfish sting. Easterly winds bring in brightly coloured jellyfish with long tentacles towards the coast, particularly blue fire and compass jellyfish. If you get stung, never wash the area with salt water: dip it in vinegar instead!

A TWO PART BEACH Noordwijk aan Zee has a variety of beaches: off the north and south boulevards, Duindamseslag and Langevelderslag, and in the direction of Zandvoort. The location of the Duindamseslag and Langevelderslag beaches gives them a completely different atmosphere to those by the central boulevards. The access roads are surrounded by peaceful nature and dunes. The Duindamseslag can only be reached on foot or by bicycle through the dunes. At the end of the Langevelderslag is St(r)andplaats Nederzandt, which can be accessed by car.

BLUE FLAG & QUALITYCOAST The Blue Flag is an international quality label which is awarded annually to seaside resorts that have clean, environmentallyfriendly, safe swimming areas.

Noordwijk has also been awarded the European QualityCoast mark.

This quality mark is awarded to international coastal sites recognizing the high standards of coastal and beach management in the areas of tourism and the environment, the conservation of nature and landscape, identity and cultural heritage.

WITH A LITTLE HELP....

People who are less mobile can also get onto the beach. How? Using the special beach wheelchairs or a big open jeep. ‘Jutter’ beach wheelchairs are available free all year round. These are entirely made of plastic, have soft, broad tyres and are waterproof, so that they can go a little way into the water. These beach wheelchairs can be reserved from various beach cafés from April to September. Locations with the ‘Jutter’ beach wheelchairs are indicated with a Jutter wheelchair flag.

In winter they can be reserved from Mr. C. Imthorn, telephone number +31 (0)6 – 204311 18.

APP: LITERARY WALKING TOUR OF NOORDWIJK (IN DUTCH) Fan of Dutch literature? Search for ‘literaire rondwandeling Noordwijk’ on your smartphone and you’ll find a handy app to take you back to times past. The app guides the walker along the famous spots in Noordwijk inhabited or described by authors.

Visitors are guided with literature from various periods, from the well known Tachtigers, an innovative poetry movement of the late 19th century to bestselling authors such as Harry Mulisch.

THRILLS: MURDER IN THE DUNES This grand theatre project by KunstKlank takes place in the Noordwijk dunes, around the Wantveld. Music from the Roaring Twenties and the hunt for a culprit are the focal points of the new music theatre production of KunstKlank.

Against the natural backdrop of the Noordwijk dunes a clue leads to murder suspects. A festival full of musical and theatrical meetings with a spectacular denouement in the dune theatre specially built for the occasion.

Welcome at Bungalow Park de Gouden Spar!

On the outskirts of the cosy sea side resort Noordwijk, you will find bungalowpark “De Gouden Spar”, situated just behind the dunes After a 15 minute walk through wild dunes you’ll reach the Northsea. In these lovely surroundings there is a sum of cycling and hiking possibilities. The park is nicely quiet and carfree.

spacious groundfloored bungalow with 3 bedrooms.

And also recreational facilities like swimming, horseback riding, tennis, golf, fishing, surfing and other watersports.

MOUNTAINBIKING

Biking:active & addictive

PHOTO SANDER PARDON

THE VARIED LANDSCAPES OF WOODS, RUGGED DUNES AND COLOURFUL BULB FIELDS MAKE WONDERFUL BIKING ROUTES. YOU CAN MAKE UP THE ROUTE AS YOU GO ALONG, OR CHOOSE FROM SEVERAL NUMBERED ROUTES OF VARYING DISTANCE, AVAILABLE FREE FROM THE NOORDWIJK VISITOR CENTER Mountain biking is for sand, grass or mud, not asphalt. This activity is much more energetic than ordinary cycling. Your bike is on rough ground, and you’re continually going uphill and downhill.

Preferably in beautiful natural surroundings.

Fortunately Noordwijk has that in plentiful supply.

To the north of the centre is an extensive green area managed by Staatsbosbeheer, part of the Hollands Duin, the name of the long stretch of coast from Wassenaar to the north of Noordwijk. The sporty cyclists among us will enjoy the ATB route set out in the Noordwijk Woods. The route takes you through the woods and dunes. The route is not particularly hilly, although there are occasional steep sections.

It’s not too difficult but there are some technically challenging places. An opportunity to actively enjoy these typically Dutch dunes.

CYCLE NETWORK The cycle network is really simple: just pick a route and follow the signs from one numbered junction to the next. There is an information panel at each junction with a general overview map.

The system makes it really simple to put together your own route. Decide for yourself where you want to start and work out your route on www.fietseninzuidholland.nl or on the free cycle map. Write down the junction numbers in sequence and you’re ready to hit the road.

Nature

Noordwijk is surrounded by beautiful natural areas of dunes and woods, so close to the big cities and yet so vast and unspoilt.

You can stroll for miles through the dunes towards the Coepelduynen of Katwijk, the Noordduinen of Zandvoort and Langeveld at Noordwijkerhout. Nearby you also have the Amsterdamse Waterleidingduinen, with a visitors’ area in a beautifully restored pumping station.

In addition to the dune landscape, there are also fantastic wooded areas such as Landgoed Leeuwenhorst, in the municipality of Noordwijkerhout, which is largely managed by the Zuid-Hollands Landschap organisation.

WILD! You can even go on safari from St(r)andplaats Nederzandt on the Langervelderslag. Safari?

In the Netherlands? Of course. The Big Five Dunesafari departs every Friday in a 6x6 truck under the accompaniment of a forester who knows all about the dunes. Go wild! www.scoordegrotevijf.nl CLEAN AIR A good reason to come to Noordwijk more often: according to recent measures this part of the Dutch coast also has the cleanest air.

So take a deep breath: the air of Noordwijk is good for the lungs!

OLD FISHERMAN’S COTTAGE The Noordwijk boulevard is characterised by a cosmopolitan atmosphere, with luxury hotels, great restaurants and apartment complexes. It’s a real surprise to find an old fisher’s cottage in this setting. Uniquely located 100m from the boulevard, this idyllic little cottage, dates back to 1785, and you can stay here too, at the centre of all the action in Noordwijk. Shops, restaurants and everything you need is in walking distance. In 2011 the cottage was converted into a comfortable holiday home with all the mod cons, and has been divided into two houses which can each be rented separately. www.vissershuisjenoordwijk.nl THE PERSONAL TOUCH Welcoming, surprising, charming, personal… you’ll find what you’re looking for in a Bed & Breakfast, summer house or private rental. Noordwijk has a tradition of renting out rooms and summer houses. In past times lots of Noordwijk houses had signs in the windows offering a ‘Room with breakfast’, and this charming, welcoming reception remains. The people of Noordwijk are used to receiving guests in spring for the flower events and throughout the summer season. See the Noordwijk Sleeping Guide for a full overview.

TRUE LUXURY If there’s a place for pampering, it’s a hotel, complete with breakfast or special package deal. Many of Noordwijk’s luxury star rated hotels have their own spas or beauty centres. If you’re staying in a simpler establishment, you can always make use of the wellness facilities at these hotels. Treat yourself to a weekend of pampering and go home rested and recharged.
