    One of his most famous works of art, Utopia or the "tortoise" by Jan Fabre in the vernacular, is a real eye-catcher in Nieuwpoort-Bad.

    'Searching for Utopia' is a work of art by Jan Fabre, dating from the Beaufort Triennial by the sea in 2003. The rider on the many times enlarged turtle looking towards the sea is a self-portrait by Fabre. Located on the Dienstweg Havengeul in Nieuwpoort, near the Mauritspark.

    Definitely worth a visit. There is also a water game for children here.
