What makes it 76% Baby-Friendly: Babies benefit from a flat buggy-friendly promenade, gentle shallows, rentable cabins for discreet diaper changes, and shade hire, but scarce fixed changing tables reduce convenience.
Why 2-3 hours visit duration is ideal for with baby: Enough time to enjoy water play, a promenade stroll, and breaks without tiring the baby.

Let your baby explore the gentle, shallow waters and soft sand on the Central Beach.
Tip: Visit at low tide for wider shallow areas and supervise baby closely.
Stroller-friendly promenade stroll:
Walk along the wide Zeedijk esplanade with smooth paths and sea views.
Tip: Stop at benches under shade for rest and snack breaks.
Beach changing huts & showers:
Use private changing cabins and cold outdoor showers scattered along the beach.
Tip: Rent a cabin early in high season; showers run May to September only.

Rent chairs and umbrellas at pavilions to shield baby from sun and wind.
Tip: Book your set mid-morning to avoid sold-out spots during July–August.

Pop into beachfront cafés with high chairs and baby menus.
Tip: Call ahead to confirm high chair availability and quiet seating.

Amazing place to be in summer.. the water was warm and swimming along with the wave's was a wonderful experience.. there are a lot of eatery's also available across the beach and a very pleasant beach to chill out..
In summer (May–September), lifeguards patrol and showers are on. In cooler months, facilities close; bring warm layers and check weather and tram schedules in advance.
