Vlieland is not very big, though that’s not the idea you get when standing on the beach. It’s not only wide but is also twelve vast kilometres long. An endless bare expanse -where else will you find that in the Netherlands? As a perfect illustration of Vlieland’s rugged and traditional character, this is where you’ll find the highest dune of the Wadden Islands. It’s a forty metre climb to the peak of the Vuurboets dune with the lighthouse on top. Visitors are often lost for words upon seeing this panorama. And that’s precisely why you come to Vlieland. Silence.
