About Sea Water

Fresh Fish, caught the same day

We are a seafood restaurant in Scheveningen, on the Dutch coast. Our fish comes from the North Sea and reaches us on the day it is caught.

How we work

Fish from the North Sea, served the day it is caught

We work with local fisheries. They fish the North Sea, and the catch reaches us on the same day.

We prepare every fish right before it is cooked. Nothing sits waiting in the kitchen.

The menu covers fish and shells, and it changes with what the boats bring in.
