Expert Tip. Located at Oudeschild on the south east coast of Texel, the Beachcombers Museum is 11 kilometres from the hotel. It houses a collection of maritime finds or, if you prefer, artefacts of nautical archaeology. Unusually, visitors are able to enter a shipwreck in something approximating its natural state, minus the great depth. EcoMare nature centre, two kilometres away, is a refuge for birds and seals and organizes excursions to the Wad, to the east, major seal gathering points.
