Food & drink
A (rather pricey, it must be said) experience!
Also for coffee, drinks or breakfast!
Satay, spare ribs, schnitzel. Soft-serve ice cream!
Pizzas and pasta near Marker 33/the lighthouse. Tasty & busy. Large terrace.
Recommended, in Den Burg
A cosy terrace and a lovely, spacious beach restaurant – with large glass windows and delicious food – our favourite beach bar.
Really good food. Talented chef and nice service. Also wine bar. Next to Pommes Paul (Haute Friture) in De Koog.
Action!
He also has a nice shop in Den Burg!
On the mudflats behind the dyke, in the Slufter, on the Hors: a stroll through nature! Also possible from the dyke at ZoWad – can also be booked via the VVV website
Daily during the season, at Paal 33, must-do!
Racing over the beach with the wind in your sails, how nice is that!
Texelse or Tesselaar: the beer on Texel is top notch, visit & taste!
Sun Sea Beach
Post 9, 12, 17, 20, 28 and 33 are recommended!
Dog loose?
Check first where possible. Pole 33 and the Dennen always!
By bike
Tip: rent an electric one, fast and comfortable!

We are happy to give you more tips on the spot!
Beautiful eateries!
Find our top 3 at the moment here...in no particular order:
Best cuisine, on the road to a star, on the island. An experience and nearby! Everyone eats the same and the same: almost entirely local from the Wad, and the rest of the island.
See and be seen... but also delicious dishes to share, nice drinks on the fantastic terrace overlooking the sea! Open all year round.
Good Indonesian cuisine, LvY / Anneke's Kitchen, small intimate restaurant in Den Burg where Chef Anneke rules. Standard 5-course surprise menu.
