About Den Helder
Den Helder is a city located in the northernmost point of the North Holland peninsula. The Dutch Navy Museum (Marinemuseum) features a real submarine and reflects the history of the Dutch Navy quite well. The museum is very easy to visit and pleasant to explore. Another interesting place to visit in the city is the Fort Kijkduin (Museum and Aquarium). Located in an old castle, the small museum features many different kinds of fish and whale skeletons.

Here they train and sell horses; you can also enjoy the beautiful tulip gardens.
