The Netherlands Hargen aan Zee You can really do good sand rides here. And when it's flood (high tide) the waves are high enough for good wave rides. There are about ten different people every summer who are skimboarding. It Realy kicks ass. Everyone knows Amsterdam in Holland. When you go Northwest to Alkmaar you have to go to Groet. Over there they know the way. (3kilometer) Submitted By: Hermruesink@hotmail.com Vuurtorenstrand, Haamstede Nice waves, probably one of the best wave riding
spots of The Netherlands. Try to between 2 hour before and 2 hour after
high tide. From Rotterdam go to Zierikzee, from Zierikzee go to Haamstede and the go to the lighttower and you will find it. Submitted By: jan_steven@goskim.com Wadden Eilanden, Terschelling Good sandriding, record setting beach inn distance
over 100 meter far and 11 rounds in one ride. Bech is about 1 mile wide.
So thats big. Go to The island in da north whit an boat an You
will find. Submitted By: skim@bikebikkels.com Midsland aan Zee, Isle of Terschelling, Fryslân This spot located on one of the Islands of The
Netherlands is one of the most beautiful places in our country. It
includes a nice large sandy beach and in good days good waves. The
tide is best just after low tide and the tide is coming in. Than You
have nice "Vlakken" as I call it.. the best underground for
the board.. There are a couple of Surfers (Hi Vinny!) Midsland aan Zee is located on the Isle of
Terschelling in the north of Holland. U must come there by boat. Go from Amsterdam to Harlingen...in Friesland.. that is a town neat the Afsluitdijk, the dike that connects Friesland and the West part of Holland. In Harlingen take the boat to Terschelling.. it ill cost u round Fl,40- Dutch Guilders (+- 20$) Than find a nice place to stay.. after that.. go to the beach.. Submitted By: SjBeelen@hotmail.com Domburg, Zeeland In the summer it's really crowded but in the spring
or fall it's really cool, you can do awesome sandrides because you've
got een really flat beach, and if there is a wind-force above 4-5 you
can do some pretty cool waves rides as well. In the summer it's crowded
but when there are aren't so much people it's cool tough. If you are a Dutch-dude you can find it very easily. Go to GOES then follow the direction to MIDDELBURG and the traffic signs will show you the place. Submitted By: skimdude@zonnet.nl Den Haag, Kijkduin A great thing about this spot is that you never
know what The entire city of Den Haag lies at the beach. When
you get to the Submitted By: sambora@esweeet.com Knip and Avila Beach, Netherlands
Antilles There are also some other beaches where u can skim
but these two are the best ones. Curacao isn't the best place to go
skimming but when the tide is high and it is hurricane season there can
be awesome/big/ beautiful liners or just monster beachbreaks. And I have
seen that too. But at the Avila beach u should watch out for possible
rocks. Usually the skim spots are just flat and you can do beginner
tricks on the waves. But if u do ever visit the island and happen to
have your skimboard with you you might want to try these beaches. About
the crowds...usually during the week there is almost no one at Knip
beach, but Avila beach is of a resort so there can be some people
around. Knip beach is located on the west side of the
island not far away (40 minutes from the city) and Avila is just next to
the city. And local people can easily tell u where they are. Submitted By: norbie_84@yahoo.com Texel, Netherlands Texel is the largest isle in the Waddensea. I have
skimmed there for ten years now. There differend kind of spots, from
very flat to very steep. Best is to go skim after a storm, then the
waves are best. Then they are comparable with the waves at Mimizan,
France(next to Biaritz).I recommend wooden boards, the foam ones work
best on the high waves.Be aware, it's always very windy.My favorite
spots: Paal 17, Paal 19 en Paal 20 but there are options enough! For my spots go to De Koog, the place is very well
known on the island. Another option is to follow the signs to
EcoMare(museum) and go to the beach there Submitted By: meelralf@yahoo.com Petten Well I am from Holland, so please don't mind my
spelling.I am always going to Skimboard with a really good friend of me
at Petten Beach. When the water is low, you can do really great sand
rides. Bud to go on the waves is a bid hard in holland I think so I am
still looking for the perfect spot. And it is also great at Petten
beach, because there are a lot of kids like 12 years old which are
trying to skimboard, and then you can learn them some tricks etc. And
you all switch skimboard, and then have a great time, and then come home
and take a nice cold beer( Dutch thing I think( but I ain’t sure)).’ Submitted
