Surroundings
Landal Vlieduyn is an excellent base for exploring the island. There is plenty to do not only on the island but also on the water. Join a seal tour to see dozens of seals in their natural habitat. Alternatively, hop on your bike and explore the Kroons polders. In the village of Oost-Vlieland, you can unwind over lunch or dinner.
Seal tour
Join the tour, hop in the rubber dinghy, and count the seals sunbathing on a sandbar. You will see them up close if you duck around the boat.
Tromp's Huys Museum
In Vlieland's oldest building, see the work of marine painter Betzy Akersloot-Berg. Paintings of shipwrecks, drownings, and long journeys. Temporary exhibitions are also held on a regular basis.
A wadden centre and a sea aquarium rolled into one. Do you think you are brave enough to pet rays and sharks? Enter the Wrecks Attic and you will find a 15-meter-long sperm whale skeleton. There is plenty to discover for both children and adults.

Bunker Museum WN 12H
If you enjoy history, you should not miss a visit to this bunker. After all, World War II left its imprint on Vlieland. You will learn everything about this period while accompanied by a guide.
Beach comber's Museum 't Reddingshuisje
Formerly a rescue house, it is now a drowning house. Vliehors Expres owns it and has turned it into a beachcomber museum. Here you will find a mishmash of seaworthiness. Definitely worth seeing.
