Thanks for the tips Gary! Next time i will visit the cafe 👍

As a native UK resident I have always found Den Helder welcoming. Good shops supermarkets and cafes. Similar in many ways to Great Yarmouth where I love to take holidays in the UK (the only place they put mayonnaise on chips in the UK)

It's interesting to see Den Helder again.. I live in the U.S. however, my family is from Den Helder.. My grandfather worked at the Rijkswerf during WWII while the remaining relatives were evacuated due to allied bombing. I have many good memories of Den Helder but, haven't been back in 25 years.. I guess, many of the aunts, uncles, grandparents have long passed away and it probably wouldn't be the same experience for me.. Back in the day, Den Helder was clean and a mostly windy city.. Unfortunately, it was considered by many in Holland to be quite boring in regards to nightlife and restaurants.. I would agree that Den Helder was not the best city to go out and party... It was difficult for some establishments to be successful in Den helder because the residents are thrifty.. Geen cent teveel!

enjoy watching with lots of things to know indeed. Great!

For your next visit some tips: There's a market in the centre on saturdays. The Kijkduin Fortress is impressive. If you have little kids take them to the Helderse Vallei (no admission fee!) to check out the fallow deer (Bambi) and mingle with baby goats. There are two meme-food options nearby; a snackbar (kroket, frikandel) and a pancake house (Dutch pancakes are the bomb).

I think you are correct, Navy museum. Marine could just mean ocean or water? I remember your visit back in the Spring. 'The silent service'. Submariners are a different sort. I want to get there, maybe next visit. Great editing too on this one. I enjoy the trains. Food looked wonderful. Fun time. Thanks. Looks like great weather for you today, enjoy the day today.

Marine is the dutch word for Navy.

When I was in the submarine, there were people which gave more cramped feeling inside. I prefered the normal ships

Den Helder etymologically comes from "Hel-deur" (Hell-door) because of the fearcy water storms between Den Helder and the isle of Texel....
