SkyView de Pier, Observation wheel at Scheveningen Pier, Netherlands
SkyView de Pier is an observation wheel on Scheveningen Pier that lifts passengers in enclosed cabins up to 50 meters high. From there, visitors see the North Sea, the beach, and The Hague's skyline stretching toward the city.
The observation wheel was built on a site where Scheveningen Pier began in the 19th century as a ship landing point. The area later transformed into a leisure destination, making room for modern attractions like this wheel today.
The observation wheel sits at a busy pier where visitors watch beach activities and promenade life unfold below them. It blends traditional seaside charm with contemporary attractions that draw both locals and tourists together.
The cabins are fully enclosed and protect you from weather while the ride moves gently and safely. You have plenty of time to enjoy views in every direction as your cabin slowly rises into the air.
As you rise, the view constantly shifts and new details of the beach, pier, and city come into focus. This gradual change in perspective makes each rotation a fresh experience, completely different from what ground level reveals.
