    The iconic statues of horse-drawn fishermen stand on the beach of Oostduinkerke-Bad.
    They serve as a catalyst for connecting with the past. Oostduinkerke is a unique and unique place in the world where shrimp fishermen on horseback keep a centuries-old tradition alive. It's always a spectacular sight, and it's a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

    Want to take a picture with shrimp fishermen? You can do that here. With a little bit of foresight, you'll suddenly have a framework for your memories of Oostduinkerke and its shrimp fishermen.

    World Heritage; the shrimp fishermen on horseback of course.
    Can be viewed on the beach of Oostduinkerke from March/April, departing from Astridplein (for information on correct hours, see the Navigo website).
