great day for the beach I was completely surprised today by the stunning beaches Amsterdam has to offer, believe it or not! A work colleague invited me on a small road trip out to Zandvoort. Within roughly a 15km drive from Amsterdam I felt like I was back home where I grew up in Bondi.
The sand is soft and white and it was so hot today you had to do the bare foot dash across it to dive into the refreshing 18 degree North Sea waters. We had a blistering 33 degrees which really made for an experience no different to being on the shores back home in the middle of summer. A game of beach volleyball, some lemon sorbet and plenty of swimming and sunbathing filled out the evening hours and we left home around 9, with the temperature still at 28 degrees and the sun far above the horizon.
Here are a few shots from the day:
