Hiking
Lots to see - from fishing cutters to ocean-going yachts. In the shipyard you can even look at them all around.
There is a fish hall and several fast food restaurants and bars where the fish is deliciously prepared.

The fishing port of Breskens accommodates around 20 boats of the Breskener fishing fleet with a length of 20 to 45 meters. The larger ones go far out on the Atlantic to catch fish on Mondays and usually return to Breskens on Fridays. The smaller ships fish off the coast and deliver their catch from the North Sea to Breskens fishing port every day. The variety of fish caught and landed is great - the largest share is flatfish, but shrimp and crabs are also caught.

The whole consists of a concrete plinth with a wavy slab of special concrete on top. This symbolizes the always turbulent sea. Two vertically placed Labrador natural stone plates with the texts: "Stand still for a moment" and "Live in memory". About this an anchor from 1901, the sign of hope. On the edge of the wavy plate, bronze plaques have been applied with the names of the killed fishermen and the ships involved.
