Exploring Ameland

By way of contrast, a holiday house or holiday rental in the small village of Ballum provides the perfect destination for a tranquil retreat with many opportunities for sunbathing, hiking or seal watching. Nes, the second largest village on the island, is another popular holiday rental destination. There you can learn more about Ameland's history at the local museum or you can go horseback riding and cycling on the coast. Buren is popular for its stunning beaches and there you can rent a holiday home or holiday apartment near the sea and go fishing or bird watching at the Oerd dunes which are home to more than 60 species. In addition to water sports such as kite surfing and sailing, the island's golf course, which is set amidst the dunes, makes it a popular holiday rental destination.
