TheVTCGuy · 7 August 2009, 07:58 AM

Can you say Scheveningen?

No, I can't

Lion · 7 August 2009, 08:00 AM

From the looks of the picture I'd try to find another beach/lake or stay home in the AC. That's nuts!!!

sexner · 7 August 2009, 09:02 AM

WAY too many people for me Frans.

I think I would just stay in my back yard with some cold ones.

rainman_16 · 7 August 2009, 01:23 PM

I can't believe it! That is an enormous beach and to be so packed full of people. The only beach goers we saw when we walked it in May were the kite surfers. Just how warm does the North Sea get????

Great, now that I'm thinking back to our trip all I can think about before heading to sleep are these scrumptious snacks

Carolina · 7 August 2009, 01:31 PM

Um, yeah. Stinky cheese, anyone?!

R1@160@alltimes · 7 August 2009, 01:33 PM

That's worse then Coney Island beach

Watchdog · 7 August 2009, 01:44 PM

Wow!

I don't think I have ever seen a photo of a more crowded beach.

Taffi Abernathy · 7 August 2009, 01:59 PM

Beaches have sand. In this case, there's water and people, and then more people. I'd barricade myself inside with a good air conditioner, plenty of iced tea and make sure no other people were around to suck up my cold air.

iSellJerseyShore · 7 August 2009, 01:59 PM

no thanks, I think I would rather stay home and sweat! Too crowded for me!

Worth a look though

Scheveningen (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈsxeːvənɪŋə(n)] ) is one of the eight districts of The Hague, as well as one of its subdistricts.

Scheveningen is a modern seaside resort with a long sandy beach, an esplanade, a pier, and a lighthouse. A nudist section is 1 km to the north.

Arby · 8 August 2009, 10:17 AM

Wow, I'm surprized the water doesn't have more of a yellow color to it...

with that amount of people in the water.

I live within a block to the beach here in NJ in a summer resort town and I've NEVER seen our beach that crowded.

Someone told them there's a 2 Euro coin buried somewhere and you know the Dutch... Copper wire was invented by two Dutchmen both pulling the same cent
