Why Callantsoog is great with children

The beach at Callantsoog is wide in most places, so children can play there safely. During the summer months there is lifeguard supervision, and there are beach pavilions where you can pick up lunch while the children play in the sand.

The village is compact as well: you can leave the car where it is and get around on foot or by bike.
