Cycle De Vie Dune Entreprise
Located in the North Sea just off the northeastern tip of the Netherlands, Texel is a 30 minute ferry ride from the port town of Den Helder. Small enough to drive across in the same amount of time, it's actually the largest of the West Frisians Islands.
Although Dutch and German families have been frequenting Texel's main town of De Koog for a number of years, it seems that this hidden gem of a summer holiday resort is yet to be popular further afield in Europe and beyond.
Beaches and Sand Dunes
Whilst Texel may be small, it’s certainly not lacking when it comes to beautiful scenery. Ringed by wide sandy beaches and wedges of forest, it has remained unspoiled despite the regular tourist traffic to the island.
