Children's party on Scheveningen beach

Children's party on Scheveningen beach

A children's party with the sea on the doorstep, space to run around, and a kitchen that understands children. At Blue Lagoon on Strand Noord, we tailor birthday parties, with games on the beach, your own table, and a children's menu that will make the birthday child happy.

Why celebrate a children's party here

A children's party in the city centre can often be a hassle. Too busy, not enough space, nowhere to run around outside. It's different at Scheveningen beach.

Here, children have the beach as their playground right outside their door, a terrace with space for their own table, and a pavilion where indoor play is just as fun. We're situated in the quieter northern part of Scheveningen, away from the tourist crowds, yet still reachable from The Hague Central Station within 25 minutes.

What a children's party at Blue Lagoon can be like

No birthday is the same, so we tailor each party. We combine these elements most often.

  • Playing on the beach, with treasure hunts, sandcastle building, ball games or an organised beach challenge. Buckets and spades are available on request; we arrange paddleboarding or bodyboarding through partners.
  • Eating from the children's menu, with Bambino pizza, Nemo fish and chips, and Pino chicken nuggets for €11 per child. Custom portions and dietary requirements are no problem.
  • Your own decorated table on the terrace or indoors, with high chairs if needed and a cooler for the cake you've brought.
  • Drinks for the whole group, from squash and smoothies to hot chocolate with cream. For parents, there's coffee, soft drinks, or a cocktail ready.

What age and group size

The pavilion is suitable for all ages. For the youngest children (3 to 6 years old), it’s about having space to move around, for primary school-aged children (7 to 11 years old), beach activities and a treasure hunt work best, and for teenagers, a relaxed afternoon, for example with a workshop on non-alcoholic cocktails, is ideal.

A typical children's birthday party

Most parties for 8 to 15 children follow this structure. Arrival around 2 p.m. with a welcome drink, followed by games on the beach or an organised activity until 4 p.m., supervised by someone from your own circle or a partner we arrange.

Around 4:00 PM, there will be a break with refreshments, after which the group will sit down for dinner. In case of bad weather, the beach activities will move indoors and the party will continue as planned, with the same sea view.
