19 Beach tents that are open all year round, so also in winter

Perhaps going to the beach in winter is even more fun than in summer. You snuggle up in a coat and scarf and let the wind blow away all the hustle and bustle. Of course, you end your walk on the beach with a cup of hot chocolate, a cozy drink, or a hearty winter meal. Not all beach bars are open in winter and the early season. We've compiled a list of the best beach bars in the Netherlands that are open year-round.

19 Beach tents that are open in winter (and stay open!)

Republic of Bloemendaal

The atmospheric interior is carefully crafted with natural elements that ensure complete relaxation. The menu features robust dishes made with seasonal ingredients, prepared by a chef who, in his own words, isn't guided by "what a beach bar should be." Zeeweg 94, Overveen – Republiekbloemendaal.nl

Club Sand

This is the spot where surfers settle down on one of the many lounge sofas in winter to warm up by the crackling fire after an active morning or afternoon. It's also an absolute must for non-surfers looking for a relaxed winter atmosphere. Zeeweg 70, Castricum aan Zee – clubzand.nl
