Beaches
For years, Terschelling has attracted a variety of visitors. No wonder, because the largest Frisian Wadden island offers something for everyone: a wide beach, with swimming sites along the North Sea coast, biking trails, scenic routes, outdoor activities and a wide range of entertainment possibilities. The sandy beach of Terschelling is one of the finest in the Netherlands. It is nicely wide and flat and therefore ideal for rest and quiet.

De lokale regel in Terschelling:
Op het strand en in het bos op Terschelling zijn (loslopende) honden het hele jaar toegestaan. Op de rest van het eiland, ook in het duingebied, zijn aangelijnde honden verplicht.
Het is echter op het hele eiland verboden dat honden achter andere dieren aangaan, deze opschrikken of schade aanrichten aan dieren of aan rust- of verblijfsplaatsen van dieren (zoals nesten of holen).

Beach tips
- At low tide there is a strong current towards the sea, than stay close to shore. In case you get pulled in by the current do not try to swim straight against it, but swim slanting to the shore with the current. Also be aware of floating devices like air-beds, boats or other swimming devices.
- Do not get to close to the poles, piers or other obstacles.
- Watch your children carefully, do not let them alone near the water. Are there recognition signs on the beach, tell it to your children.
- Help to keep the beaches clean.
