About This Camera

This camera overlooks the broad sandy beach and iconic pier at Scheveningen, the seaside district of The Hague and the most visited beach resort in the Netherlands. The 381-meter pier extends into the grey-green North Sea, its observation tower and bungee platform visible at the far end, while kite surfers and windsurfers exploit the reliable coastal winds.

The wide beach accommodates rows of blue-and-white striped windbreaks, a Dutch beach tradition, along with beach clubs that serve bitterballen and local herring from temporary pavilions built each spring. The Kurhaus, a grand 19th-century hotel, dominates the seafront promenade behind the beach.

Weather here changes rapidly, and the camera captures everything from brilliant summer sunshine to dramatic North Sea storms with crashing waves and wind-driven sand. The enormous sky, characteristic of the Dutch coast, provides spectacular cloud formations at any time of year.
