Oostduinen is the vast, protected dune area along the Hague coast, towards Wassenaar. It is first and foremost a nature and recreation area: virtually no one lives here, but it is a popular place to walk, cycle and enjoy the coast.
The character of Oostduinen
Oostduinen is the green, unspoilt northern flank of The Hague: a vast, protected dune area along the coast, towards Wassenaar. Unlike the other districts in this guide, Oostduinen is not a residential district — virtually no one lives here. It is first and foremost a nature and recreation area, popular with walkers, cyclists and beachgoers.
Location and surroundings
Oostduinen stretches along the coast north of Scheveningen, between the Belgisch Park and the municipal boundary with Wassenaar, where it merges into the Meijendel dune area. The area consists of dunes, beaches and walking and cycling routes.
Living
Oostduinen has virtually no homes: it is a protected nature area. That is why we deliberately show no demographic or property-market figures on this page — they would have no meaning for a dune area.
Who is Oostduinen of interest to?
Oostduinen is not there to live in, but to enjoy: for nature and walking lovers, cyclists and beachgoers it is one of the most beautiful stretches of coast in The Hague.
