Museums:

Zandvoorts museum
Style rooms, fishing accessories, ship models, paintings, photographs, models of old buildings and video presentations depict the transition from fishing village to coastal resort to a large audience.


Jutters museum
In the past, beachcombing was part of everyday life of the people of Zandvoort, as a means of earning additional income. This museum reveals a number of surprising finds from the local beach. Entrance is free! 

Countryside:

Nationaal Park Zuid-Kennemerland
The Kennemerduinen dunes is the largest area within the National Park. The variation in vegetation is very broad leading to a wealth of flora and fauna.

Amsterdamse waterleidingduinen
Here you can enjoy nature, peace and space, and there is no reason to strictly stick to the paths. In other words, you can literally stroll through nature, as you please. Unfortunately you are not allowed to cycle through the area.

 

Games and pastimes:

Circus Zandvoort
Fun & Games and Casino. Free entrance

Holland Casino Zandvoort

Aqua Mundo, Center Parcs Park Zandvoort
Subtropic swimming pool, sauna, Turkish bath and Solarium.

Circuit Park Zandvoort
Sporting highlights were the first Grand Prix that also counted for the world championship in 1952 and the Grand Prix in 1961 when all 15 cars started that arrived at the finish, without a single pit stop in between. The last race that counted towards the world championship was driven at Zandvoort in 1985. Today, the circuit has been extended to 4300 meters, and a new main grandstand was built in 2001.
Even today, major events are still organized every year, such as the Masters of Formula 3 and the DTM.
