Audio Guide of Scheveningen Pier

The pier (De Pier) is generally open every day from 10:00 a.m., although restaurants and attractions may have different closing times. It is located at Strandweg 150 and is easily accessible by tram from The Hague or on foot along the main boulevard.

Access to walk along the pier is completely free, making it an excellent option for enjoying the views at no cost. You only have to pay if you decide to ride the Ferris wheel, take part in adventure activities, or buy something at the bars.

We recommend setting aside between 45 and 90 minutes for a relaxed walk and to enjoy the panoramic views. If you plan to eat there or ride the famous Ferris wheel, it is better to allow at least two hours.

The current pier is a modern reconstruction that replaced the old structure, which was damaged by fires and the passage of time. It is unique for its two-level design (covered and open-air) and represents the resilience and modern life of the Dutch coast.

Sunset is without a doubt the most spectacular time to watch the sun go down over the North Sea and see the Ferris wheel lights come on. During the day it is very lively, and thanks to its covered area, it is a perfect visit even if it rains.

Yes, the design is quite accessible and has elevators connecting the upper and lower levels. The walkways are wide, allowing comfortable access for people with reduced mobility and families with strollers.

You are right in front of the impressive Grand Hotel Amrâth Kurhaus and just a few steps from SEA LIFE Scheveningen. You can also stroll along the famous beach boulevard or visit the nearby 'Fairytale Sculptures' statues.

Always bring a jacket or windbreaker, as the sea breeze is often strong and cool even on sunny days. For a complete experience, check the official De Pier website to see whether there are markets or live music that day.
