there are two ferries going back and forth between DenHelder and Texel. This one is the Texelstroom. she is only a few years old. Everything that wants to go to the island or back has to be taken with these ferries. Cars, caravans and trucks. And they are often full to the last seat, because Texel is extremely popular with tourists. The ferries only operate the Den Helder/Texel route

This is amazing - so picturesque and scenic - but I wonder why the ferry boat is such a large vessel for the relatively short journey to and from Den Helder? It's so big and spacious it could be used for longer distance sailings! Is this one just a shuttle between the two destinations, or does it also go further and also take in the other Waddeneilanden?

@Followmytravels Жыл бұрын

To be honest i don t know why there is huge ferry for that short distance, beside, except some limited Summer days, it s not really crowded. :) But this ferry run between Texel - Den Helder as i know 😊

It is a shuttle service. It is big because the sea can get wild and the service should be open in almost all weather. Size also enables quick boarding and unboarding in the harbours, with almost no queues. Size of the passenger deck is due to the size of the double layer car deck, it would be silly to make it smaller if space is available. This service is based on speed, with no delays, so bus and train connections can be scheduled reliable and there is a smooth and quick transfer. (If people follow the BUS and TRAIN arrows! 😄) Island hopping is almost impossible because the Waddenzee isn't deep enough to go from island to island on the 'inside'. On the North Sea outside it would be possible, but you need big seaworthy ferries, and demand is low, therefor not economically feasible. Other mainland island ferries follow the deep tide streams that cross the Waddenzee and end up between the islands where the tide currents are enormous. So they arrive at the end tips of the islands, never half way where the sea is shallow. Texel is the biggest and most populated of the islands, so a good fast ferry service is possible. For the other islands car transfer is discouraged or even forbidden for non-inhabitants.

when we went to texel we took our tent and went to camping koogerstrand. Its location is great and the camp site is in the dunes. Although its a big commercial camp site the prices are friendly . Because its in the dunesthe hills block the other other tents and camping vehicles from view. it almost feels like camping in nature while having electricity, and a toilet shower and other stuff. We also had great weather so we had a good time biking around the island from there

I remember that camp! Nearby De Koog, we also stayed around but another small camping place, 10 min cycling from De Koog. The one you stayed is pretty big, and look so natural next to Duins. Thanks for watching and commenting 😊👍🤗
