Why visit

Scheveningen Pier is a waterfront setting at The Hague shaped by the relationship between the settlement and the water. Boats, quays, waterside buildings and open views provide the main visual interest, while nearby streets give useful context for how the harbour area fits into the town. The stop is best approached as a short walk rather than a single photo point, with time to look along the water from more than one position. Weather, vessel activity and local access arrangements can affect the experience, so current conditions should be checked before travel.

What you will see

  • Harbour or quayside views.
  • Boats and waterside activity.
  • Adjoining historic streets and buildings.
