Cycling

The sheep that dominate the landscape here are not only a beautiful subject for your photos, but also help to maintain the coastal protection systems. While you cycle gently along the dike, you can watch the animals in peace and enjoy the fresh sea air.

An absolute classic. A photo is a must.

Gravel riding

The shepherds of the dikes, in the middle instead of just being there. Mostly relaxed, they go about their work of maintaining the dikes' grass, but one or the other likes to push themselves into every photo. If you still think there's only one "Shaun", take a closer look 😉🐑
