Texel dike

Going up the dike at the east side of the island Texel, near the village of Oosterend. Unlike the west side with beaches and the North Sea, this side has a long dike to protect the island against the water of the Waddenzee.

On top of the dike, with the Waddenzee on our left..

..and this is the view onto the island seen from the dike. It is one of the more quiet places of Texel, surrounded by nature area's.

  4. Ik ruik op foto 2 bijna de geur van het slib. Daar sta je nooit zo bij stil, maar het hoort zo bij Nederland. Mooie foto's!

  6. We read stories and history about your dikes as children but I never imagined that they would be such beautiful places to walk and enjoy nature. I've seen pictures of them before this one, so I know better now, but your post makes me think again about how children (and adults) can be mistaken in their impressions from what they read. Wish I could see in person!!
