Sand
Igraine Says:
The beach, you can´t miss it. Great for walking, letting the mind wander, clear it.But weather permitting also a wonderfull place to spend the day doing nothing, swim some, read a bit, buy an icecream.
Active in Terschelling
PeteNL Says:
As far as I experienced, you can do a lot on Terschelling. Be aware of a lot of other holiday makers doing the same what you are enjoying. The island is not very big, however, it offers quite a long cycling route around it with nice natural dune areas, beaches (also for...
Harlingen fishing-port.
Alphons Says:
This is the Harlingen fishing-port.When you see the harbour after your depart from Terschelling than you know that your trip to the wonderful Wadden sland Terschelling is over. :-(Maybe till the next time but it was a nice trip to Terschelling.
Cafe Brasserie Zeezicht: Best view
Igraine Says:
Its best feature is the view on the harbour. You can see the ferries come and go and the fishing trawlers etc. It serves normal food and drink with a local touch. Cranberries are a wellknow local berry. They have here cranberrie cake, pie and wine. The last one is very sweet...
De Walvis (the Whale): A restaurant with a view!
Mirellaboer Says:
It's the restaurant with the best view of Terschelling. It's located nearby the beach and the harbour, so will see all the boats passing by
The tuna sandwich, I don't know why, maybe it's the atmosphere, maybe it's the fresh air, but I have never tasted a homemade tuna...
Bar/Restaurant "de Groene Weide": Good food and live muziek
Alphons Says:
The nice bar/cafe and "De Groene Weide" is in the place Hoorn. The owner is Hessel. It is a famous live muziek entertainer on Terschelling. There are a lot of peoples who visit his bar for his performance. Its free entree and in the summer he has every evening a show, in...
Cafe De Groene Weide: The song singer from Hoorn

This is really a very special place!It's a bar, but not a normal bar, the owner of this bar is Hessel and he sing songs in his bar. The atmosphere is really fantastic, it's always very crowded, but every one is friendly and nice!
There is no dress code , so wear what you...
Ferry Harlingen-Terschelling
Alphons Says:
From Harlingen can you go by fast ferry "De Koegelwiek" just 50 min. or the normal ferry 2 hours.You go to the West Terschelling harbour.
Pedal Power
ronaldbarr Says:
On Terschelling over two thousand good quality bicycles are available for hire. Add to this a network of excellent cycle routes and signage for easy sightseeing on two wheels.Be warned though that a level of fitness is required if you are to make headway up wind....
With bicycle on the ferry
PeteNL Says:
Our experience with the ferries to Terschelling was no so pleasant because of the various kinds of boats serving the route and the rules for taking just a few or no bikes at all on some of them. We had to spend quite a few hours hanging around the harbour waiting for the...
Ferry Harlingen-Terschelling
Alphons Says:
This is one of the ferry's from "rederij Doeksen". That cross the "waddenzee" from Harlingen-Terschelling-Harlingen.
Cranberries
What to buy: The Cranberry is originally from Canada, but a long time ago a barrel of cranberries ended up on Terschelling due to a shipwreck.
So on Terschelling there are a lot of thing to buy which are created with or from the cranberry.

Camping stuff on your bike
PeteNL Says:
A backpack and a bicycle luggage bag. A nice map holder for the bike is very helpful as well.
As little as possible since you have to carry it around all the time. And there are laundry facilities on camp grounds.
The containers should be as small as possible since, again,...
Backpack and walking shoes
Alphons Says:
take your backpack with you.
And good hiking shoes are a must when you will walk over "De Boschplaat"and the beach.
And Terschelling is beautiful for making pictures.

This is the Noord Zee Strand on Terschelling late in April close to Midsland aan zee. The sunshine, sand, sea and absence of people has a high level of appeal for a quiet time.
In terms of cleanliness, this is a very pristine strand. For the wildlife enthusiast shy, grey seals can be spotted enjoying the isolation around the island.

Kite surfing
Since this island is surrouned by the sea you can do all sorts of watersports.
But because of the always available wind and waves, surfing in all its variations is a great thing to do i guess.
We saw kite surfing while we were there. The guys seemed to have no trouble at all in surfing the waves.

This is just outside Terschelling where the dunes begin.So you can walk a few min from the towncenter to the start of the dunes for a nice walking trip.
West Terschelling
Alphons Says:
This is the most importend place on Terschelling. Here are a lot of shops, some musea, hotels, appartments, restaurants and the ferry port.
