This is the start of a series of dutch coast pictures. There are some of the famous Hondsbossche Dike, some of the lovely village of Bergen, and some of Groet, all lying close to each other near Alkmaar, about 50 km north of Amsterdam.

In this first article, you can see pictures of Bergen, Schoorl and Groet, all three famous for their dunes and beaches, and of the Hondsbossche Dike.
