Autumn Holiday

An autumn holiday on Terschelling means getting some fresh air by the sea, enjoying autumn colours and warm hot chocolate after a lovely Puur activity. It's a time of year when you can venture into nature with or without a winter coat. It can be stormy, but also beautifully calm weather with plenty of sunshine hours nonetheless. We love the autumn colours on Terschelling, when the island shows its most pure side. Let yourself be surprised and come exploring with us.

North Sea Covered Wagon Trip with Trawl Net Fishing

Now that's truly pure food from nature... On this North Sea trip, we fish for prawns using a trawl net. At the same time, we discover the rich life in the North Sea: crabs, flatfish, jellyfish, sand eels, hermit crabs and starfish.

Mudflat hiking with oyster tasting

We'd love to take you out onto the mudflats for 'the feeling I mean'. Together you'll create a lovely memory, walking across the seabed of the Waddenzee. Back home at the Puur farm, we'll finish with a delicious oyster tasting for enthusiasts and those who want to discover the taste of mudflat oysters.
