Castricum to Wijk-aan-zee : 11.8 km through dunes

This route heads south-west - there are numerous options - till it hits LAW5 where the way is marked with red/white markers. I marked on the map part of it as 'sandy and no shade' but actually the no shade is right but the sand is not too hard going. Good route avoiding cycle paths except for short sections.
