Come spend the night in North Holland and discover it all!
The province where the great Amsterdam is located. Amsterdam has a rich history and is the tourist attraction of the Netherlands. The sights literally fly around your ears. But staying overnight North Holland has much more to offer than touristy Amsterdam. The capital of the province, Haarlem, is well worth a visit. Furthermore, the traditional Zaanstad and Alkmaar are also a good way to spend your holiday.
Of course, staying overnight in North Holland is more versatile than just city trips. The province has a diverse range of nature, such as the Amsterdamse Waterleidingduinen. In this area with great biodiversity you can spot wild animals such as fallow deer and foxes. The special thing about the Amsterdamse Waterleidingduinen is that it has been supplying Amsterdam with drinking water since 1853.
Due to the great diversity, special overnight stays in North Holland are easily achievable. In addition to the Amsterdam Waterleidingduinen, it is also possible to look for other types of nature. The Loosdrechtse Plassen is a popular destination for a nice day’s sailing. The province also has a long coastline where Bloemendaal, Noordwijk aan Zee or Petten are one of the many options for a nice day at the beach. Make the day extra special by experiencing the sunset on the beach.
Seen enough beach and dunes? Staying overnight North Holland has even more to offer, namely the National Landscape of Laag Holland. This piece of land is characterized by its complete location below sea level. The expansive view of the polders of North Holland is unique. Because the water runs in straight lines, you have a special view in this nature reserve.
If you are going on a trip with your partner and are looking for a romantic overnight stay in North Holland, there are various trips you can do. For example, visit Alkmaar and the northern part of North Holland. In Alkmaar you will find a traditional cheese market that has existed for four centuries. It is a market that mainly attracts tourists, but it is still worth attending once.
After visiting the cheese market, it is romantic to take a look at the tulip fields. This can be found between Petten and Den Helder. Go for a nice walk along the beautiful fields. The cozy and touristic village of Zaanse Schans is something you should not miss when staying overnight in North Holland. The village is an accessible living and working area with various windmills, old-fashioned bakeries and a warehouse where clogs are made.
Did you know that Amsterdam has 165 canals, which are a total of 75 kilometers long ? These are more canals than Venice! It is therefore worth doing a cruise in one of the many electric canal cruise services. The cruise gives you a new look at the city, tells you about its rich history and lets you visit places you would never have gone otherwise.
Not in the mood for a cruise, but want to go out on your own? Which can! For example, choose to spend the night in North Holland in Haarlem. In Haarlem you have several providers for renting out boats. From Haarlem you can sail various nice routes, such as a tour in the canals of Haarlem, but for a longer trip also a day tour to Amsterdam.
