Visiting Texel with your kids
Texel is the perfect place for a holiday with kids. No long car journeys, but still a proper break. Your holiday starts at the ferry, a real adventure for kids!
Beach, sea and plenty of adventure
Texel itself has lots to offer: sun, beach and sea. Get active: cycle, walk or fly a kite. Older kids may enjoy the climbing park, go-karting, bodyboarding or surfing.
Discover lost treasures at the Beachcombers Museum, go seal watching at Ecomare or on a mudflat excursion.
Weather not so nice today? Visit the new pool or indoor play paradise at Holiday Park De Krim.
Meet PIPER on Texel beach
The chance is big that when you walk on the beach from Texel you meet birds like Piper. Piper looks between the waves for food, and when the waves are coming back they run away from them. Are you going to look for Piper on Texel beach?
