Rank : 8.8 (average on 18 votes)

Coordinates : 53.091495,4.898909 (Open in Google Maps)

Subjects : Many species of birds, including Branta bernicla (Goose Wood Pigeon), Haematopus ostralegus (Woodcock Sea), Recurvirostra avosetta (Avocet), Phasianus sp. (Pheasant), Sterna hirundo (Sterna), Charadrius hiaticula (Courier Grosso), Haematopus ostralegus (Woodcock Sea), gulls and other, also on the island you can take pictures of horses in the semi-wild. From the point of view of the landscape, the immense beaches, the lighthouse and the characteristic villages offer a good subject.

Recommended equipment : For birds, a cloth at least 300/400mm, obviously if you have longer focal lengths bring them: animals on the island are quite confident, but still led a tele can be useful. And of course the tripod would take even a standard zoom for landscapes and grandagolo.

Best months : End of April, May and early June are the best times for the amount of birds.

How to get there : Den Helder numerous ferries depart every day, in 20 minutes reach Texel. The island is quite large and need a car to move from one place to another (or a bike, but not the best if you have the camera equipment!).

Visits : It 's always possible to visit the island. Council to stop 3-4 days, there are numerous facilities for pernottamenteo, from campsites to hotels. If you are in a group, I recommend the Residentie Californie (www.californie.nl), here we paid 90 euro for a room that can comfortably accommodate 4 people.

Notes : You do not need huts or camouflage clothing, pets are confident! The better vantage point that I have found is marked on the map googlemap.
