It is located north of Petten and south of Callantsoog on the North Sea and lives mainly from tourism. Only about 80 people live permanently in the village along the Zeeweg and Westerduinweg streets .
The village is located near Sint Maartensvlotbrug and on the edge of the nature reserve "Het Wildrijk", which is known for its wild hyacinths and for the "Duinrellenproject" started in 2010, which supplies the area with clean water from the dunes .
