EuroParcs Hindeloopen

On warm days, the beach at the IJsselmeer is the place everyone goes to. The shallow water slopes gradually, so it is also safe for young children to splash and build dams. While they enjoy themselves with sand between their toes, you can relax on a rug or paddle together. Swimming in the IJsselmeer feels like swimming in nature: fresh, clear and wonderfully invigorating. And for those who prefer water sports: this place is popular with kitesurfers and sailors - to watch or to try for yourself!

Everything has been thought of at this park to make you and your family comfortable. At the small beach, there is a new adventure every day: building sandcastles, looking for crabs or just endlessly jumping on the air trampoline or in the playground. In high season, the itinerant entertainment team Funheroes organises fun craft afternoons, sports tournaments and mini-discos. In the indoor playground, the children can romp around when the weather is not so nice.

And for you? Quiet walks along the water or just relax with a magazine on the terrace of your accommodation. The park has its own snack bar where you can go for a cup of coffee, French fries or a relaxing dinner. And the small groceries you just get at the mini market at the campsite. Everything within reach - that's a holiday.

From your vacation address, you can walk or bike só into the charming town of Hindeloopen. With its narrow alleys, bridges and cute facades, it is like a living painting. Visit the skating museum, stroll along the stores or have an ice cream at the harbour. Other Elfsteden towns, such as Stavoren and Workum are also a short distance away and are ideal for a family outing.

Does your family love animals? Then AquaZoo Leeuwarden is a must – over an hour's drive, but definitely worth it for a day full of animal fun. Rather active? Rent a boat and discover Friesland from the water. Or get on a bike that you can rent here and explore the dikes, lakes and meadows full of grazing sheep.
