Tip from the parkmanager

‘You really couldn’t camp any closer to the woods, beach, De Muy and cosy village of De Koog than this. We strongly recommend a visit to De Muy. This is a nature reserve with impressive dunes, a dune lake and large spoonbill colony.
The modern toilet block at Campsite De Shelter has underfloor heating, making it very comfortable in the early and late season too!’
