Texel
Strand Paal 9, on the southwest coast of Texel, is a popular spot for its natural setting and calm atmosphere. The beach is wide, with dunes in the background and often a more relaxed crowd compared to the more exposed spots on the island.
It is a place that appeals to riders looking for easy access to the sea and navigation in an open environment. The atmosphere remains laid-back, with a true sense of space on this stretch of the North Sea coast.
