A charming spot to indulge in a game of football while basking in the serene ambiance of Dundee Athletic beach.

Throughout the year, it is a delightful experience to stroll along the seaside. The beach is expansive and impeccably maintained, providing visitors with a pristine environment to enjoy. During peak vacation season, the sand is sifted in the evenings, allowing for barefoot walks along the shore. Observe the playful sandpipers darting back and forth, while the seagulls and terns fill the air with their distinctive calls. The beach is so vast that overcrowding is never an issue, and you won't encounter the typical scenes of people packed tightly together like sardines.

This beach is truly a sight to behold, with its crystal-clear waters and powdery white sand. It's a shame that the beloved Badhuys is temporarily closed due to the pandemic, but we can't wait to return and fully indulge in all the wild fun that this beach has to offer in the coming year.
