Beautiful harbour town with good restaurants and cafes, a beautiful little harbour that invites you to enjoy the peace and quiet.

Impressive merchant houses around the harbor lock tell of a rich past with many breweries - the Bierkade and the Brouwersgracht confirm this. Picturesque streets lead past cultural monuments from the Golden Age.
The flood cannons, which are still located on the Blokzijl quay, are no longer in use. The cannons were once used to warn the population of impending high water and flooding by firing warning shots. However, on the night of February 4-5, 1825, the warning came too late for many, because a storm surge and stormy winds drove up the water and sea dikes broke all around.

Very nice walk along the water. Beware of oncoming traffic, very narrow path.
