Oudeschild, Den Burg, De Koog and Den Hoorn are all within easy reach, so it slots naturally into a day of touring the island.

Texel is one of the Wadden Islands, where mudflats, salt marshes, dunes and sandy beaches make up most of the landscape. Cycling is the usual way to get around, and the island's compact scale keeps distances short.

Dutch is the main language spoken here, and Frisian is heard on Terschelling and Schiermonnikoog rather than on Texel itself. Summer brings the most reliable weather for walking and birdwatching along the coast.
