The Horse Of Marken Lighthouse, nestled in the picturesque locality of Marken, Netherlands, stands as a beacon not just for ships but also for beach lovers and tourists alike. While not your typical sprawling sand beach, the area surrounding the lighthouse offers a unique coastal experience with a blend of cultural heritage and natural beauty. Activities in the vicinity are more geared towards scenic walks, photography opportunities, and soaking in the tranquil atmosphere rather than the usual beach sports or swimming, given the nature of the coastline here. The area has few amenities, so plan your trip accordingly, although it does not permit dogs, does not have facilities for disabled guests, lacks public restrooms, and does not support camping or surfing activities.
