Dunes

One of the newest areas of Almere is called "Dune". The dunes are not authentically, the sand is brought here to create a dune landscape.

We had a look last Sunday and it looked very real with the beach grass around, like the dunes along the North Sea coast.

The houses are brand new and we spoke a woman who just had moved in a few weeks ago. She said it felt like having a holiday there.

  3. I loved the homeowners comment and certainly indicates her pleasure in living in this "beach" community. Very unusual. I bet they'd like to have the sea as well.

  4. Are the houses actually near the sea Marianne, or just made to look that way?

  5. There is a big lake nearby, but not a sea, it is all fake those dunes, artificial dunes :)

  6. Looks like a real dune area, but when I know it's a fake, I don't know if I'd like to live there.
    The last photo is quite nice.

  8. Very unusual but interesting. I just wonder it all that sand doesn't just fly into the houses on windy days.
