About

On Texel, De Waddenster sits at Van der Sterrweg 6, 1797 SV Den Hoorn Texel, in the island's south. The campsite is known for its position near Den Hoorn, one of Texel's smaller villages. First-time visitors can expect a quiet base away from the busiest resort areas.

The campsite holds a 4.9 out of 5 average across 66 reviews, an exceptionally high figure that reflects strong approval from its guests. Den Hoorn lies a short drive from Den Burg, De Koog, Oudeschild, De Cocksdorp and Oosterend, so campers can explore the whole island from this base. Texel's cycle paths and flat terrain make getting around straightforward from Den Hoorn.

The islands were formed by sand and clay moved by tides, and some were once joined to the mainland. The website at https://www.waddenstertexel.nl/ carries the campsite's own information for anyone planning a stay. Lighthouses on Texel and Schiermonnikoog mark the sea lanes, and some are open to visitors.

Mudflats, salt marshes, dunes and sandy beaches make up most of the islands' landscape, so the surroundings reward walkers and cyclists. Winter brings storms and short days, and some ferry services run on reduced timetables, which is worth knowing when planning a stay outside the summer months. De Waddenster gives campers a southern Texel base with Den Hoorn's village close at hand and the rest of the island within easy reach.
