Strandpaviljoen Twaalf

Strandpaviljoen Twaalf is the only beach pavilion on Texel without any surrounding distractions, offering an open setting right by the sea. This spot is a favourite among locals and visitors, often described as 'a second home by the shore'. The menu stands out with surprising dishes you won’t easily find elsewhere, featuring locally sourced meat from their own adopted cows, fresh fish from the island’s harbour, and a wide selection of vegetarian and vegan options. Many ingredients come from Texel and other organic regional producers, ensuring a focus on sustainability and flavour.

Visitors can expect a relaxed atmosphere with a unique interior design and view over the North Sea. The pavilion also caters private events like weddings or parties, offering full or partial planning services. Parking is available at the foot of the dunes, with a short 100-metre walk to the pavilion. For reservations or the latest menu, check the website or contact them directly.
