Location

On the beach outside Oostvoorne, The Netherlands

Participants

Plans

Nice sunny Sunday, perfect for a walk on the beach. And with the hashpoint on a nearby beach, that's exactly what I set out to do.

Expedition

Arrived at the beach around 14:30. Since I don't have any portable GPS-enabled devices, I had printed the location on Google Maps, hoping to find some landmarks that could help me pinpoint the exact location once there. Luckily, there was a visitor map that referenced markers on the beach. I'm pretty sure I ended up within 100 metres of the actual point.

Photos

The visitor map on the beach. The geohash is about 1/5 of the way between markers 8 and 9.
This is marker 8.2. There's a marker every 200 metres along the beach.
