To reach the beach you have to walk down through the dunes which are important in protecting the land against potentional ravages by storm waves from the sea.
Or use the stairs.
The dunes are planted with marram grass to keep the sand together.
The old dunes, more landward are overgrown with bushes. In the distance you can see the skyline of the government city the Hague.
To our surprise there were still some flowers in the dunes although it is autumn. We are enjoying a kind of Indian summer with cold nights but lots of sunshine during the day with temperatures of 17 degrees C (62.6 F).
I like the cobblestone road. Very attractive scene.

In enjoyed being near the beach when we lived in The N etherlands. When we arrived we stayed at a hotel in Scheveningen and then found a house in Wassanaar again near the North Sea. I always found the water cold though even in summer!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenSounds like you look after the preservation of your dunes like we do Marianne. Super beach shots.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenHeerlijk weer om nog even aan het strand te vertoeven.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenDearest Marianne,
BeantwoordenVerwijderenLovely photos and lovely to see those wild roses with rose hips!
Today we have 24°C but tomorrow only 18°C... warning for rough weather in the New York area so bad weather seems to come our way!
Enjoy the pretty days of this fall.
Hugs,
Mariette
Your walkways through the dunes are very nice. Ours are old weather-beaten rotten boarding.

BeantwoordenVerwijderenThe colours of those flowers really stand out beautifully, Marianne!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI do like to dunes running along the back of a beach - we too are enjoying an Indian Summer, it is lovely isn't it?
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThe dunes are beautiful! I grew up riding horses on the dunes at the beach. My grandfather also used to ride us kids up and down the dunes in his jeep. Wonderful memories! Our weather is a little cooler here, but not much.
