Camping de Lakens is a hidden gem among the dunes in the Zuid-Kennemerland National Park. Bloemendaal beach is only a hundred steps away. You can walk for miles or try your hand at surfing here. Then relax in the sauna and enjoy a relaxing massage in the Wellness dome. Stay fit during your vacation by using the gym for free! On the terrace, you can enjoy good food and a drink as the sun sets. The campsite has been nominated in the category of 'Best family campsite by the sea'.

Camping De Lakens offers a wide variety of accommodation options to suit the most demanding guests. Dunes-side camping pitches with picnic tables or hammocks are available, as are bell or safari tents, backpackshacks, de Waard tents, airstreams, dune lodges, beachdomes, retro trailers, seashacks, and sea cocoons. All rentals have WiFi except for the bell tent and safari tent. Breakfast is included in the price of bell/safari tents.

Throughout the campsite, heated sanitary buildings with baby rooms, disabled rooms, showers, and toilets are available. There are several chemical toilet dumps. The codes for the baby and disabled areas can be obtained at reception. There is also a laundry room right at the entrance. To use the washing machine, you must purchase a token at the SPAR cash register.

If you want to grill, you can do so here on either gas or electricity. Gas barbecues, including gas, are available for rent at Behind the Beach Bicycle Rental.

In the Zep Zone, children can participate in fun activities based on various themes. During the season, our recreation team, in collaboration with Zep de Zeemeeuw, is ready to make it a memorable holiday. On cloudy days, we have an indoor playground called the Zep Zone. The entrance to the Zep Zone can be reached via a rope or a staircase from the restaurant.

We have additional play areas in addition to our super cool playground at the restaurant. We have a beach football field, a chill out area for young people, and several playgrounds scattered throughout the campground.

Do you enjoy hiking or cycling? You can cycle or walk directly from the campsite into the lovely dune area.

Stay fit! Visit the Fit & Zen Zone, which is open daily from 09:00 to 21:30. The Fit & Zen zone is freely accessible to all the campsite’s guests. 

Would you like to explore the dunes or surroundings by bike? Then drop by the "Behind the Beach" bike rental. The bike rental is closed out of season. Opening hours are posted on the door.

The campsite has an amazing restaurant. The restaurant has a beautiful view of the beach. You can watch your children play in the playground next to the restaurant from the terrace. Come enjoy the setting sun on a summer evening while eating delicious food, or warm up by the cosy fireplace in winter! And if you decide to try more regional specialities by stepping out of the campsite, go to French restaurant De Bokkedoorns, just 2,4 km away.

Kennemerland National Park

This wonderful area is ideal for hiking, cycling, and wildlife watching. Around every corner you can encounter Scottish highlanders, foxes, wisents, or konik horses. 

Surfing

With your reservation at De Lakens, you will get a discount on a lesson at the surf schools Mifune and Surfana. At both, you can go for various lessons in water sports, such as wave surfing and sailing. 

Visit Zandvoort (6 km).

It is a charming seaside town just outside of Amsterdam. With its long and expansive beach, rich history, and picturesque views of the North Sea, Zandvoort is a good destination for a little getaway. Do you want to experience action and sensation? Visit the Zandvoort racing circuit. Did you know that Formula 1 is taking place here? Read more about it in our blog 5.

Go to Haarlem (7 km).

Haarlem is known for its Hofjes (enclosed courtyard gardens), and there are beautiful green spaces tucked away behind many unassuming streets, the majority of which date back to mediaeval times. The gardens are surrounded by charitable almshouses that house poor, single, or widowed women. It is one of the most beautiful cities in the Netherlands and should not be missed. Its mediaeval atmosphere is enhanced by its narrow streets and small shops.

Do not miss Amsterdam (37 km).

Amsterdam is well-known for its picturesque canals, quirky architecture, and vibrant nightlife. It is also an excellent location for discovering Dutch art and culture, and the city has a long history dating back to the 13th century. It is one of Europe's most popular tourist destinations. Amsterdam is also the country's leading cultural centre, with over 40 museums, academies, and numerous theatres and entertainment venues.
