No Experience Required

A low, briny wind pushes off the North Sea as you step from the dunes onto the wide promenade of Hoek van Holland. The town’s industrial skyline—piers, cranes and the distant Ferries—frames a route that alternates between clean beach, compact streets and harbor viewpoints. Your phone buzzes; the game begins, and the city asks you to look closer.
