Fossielenexpeditie op het Maasvlaktestrand

Go in search of real treasures...

Under the guidance of experienced fossil hunter and FutureLand spokesperson Walter Langendoen, you can join a fossil expedition. The Maasvlakte was created by pumping sand from the North Sea floor. With the pumping of this sand, the remains of ancient life ended up on the Maasvlakte beach. During the expedition, you will search for real archaeological and paleontological treasures that are still found every day.

The program starts with a short presentation in FutureLand, after which you will depart by bus to the Maasvlakte beach. During the expedition you will walk a bit on the beach and along the high-water line. Boots or other suitable footwear are recommended. The duration of the excursion is over two hours. At the end of the fossil expedition, Walter will examine all the finds.
