#northsea #hoekvanholland #beach #travel #summer
Day trip, on a summer day, to Hoek van Holland (the corner of The Netherlands), I got a really nice weather, a bit cloudy but that didn't stop the sun to warm the day and get a nice 28 degrees Celsius.
The metro stopped on a temporary metro station, and I walked about 500 meters to reached the old NS train station. The whole system is being expanded one station that finally reaches the beach.
So instead of taking a bus from Hoek van Holland Haven station, I did a walk to the beach, and then returned also walking from the future "Hoek van Holland Strand station" to the "Hoek van Holland Haven station", passing through the quiet and calm city of Hoek van Holland.

Hook of Holland is a town in the southwestern corner of Holland, hence the name; hoek means "corner" and was the word in use before the word kaap - "cape", from Portuguese cabo - became Dutch. The English translation using Hook is a false cognate of the Dutch Hoek, but has become commonplace.
