    You reach the nature reserve Deijzermonding via the Halvemaanstraat or via the free ferry service (jetty on the promenade).

      At Nieuwpoort, the Yser flows directly into the sea. Where salt and fresh water meet, a special biotope developed with mud flats, salt marshes, dunes, beach and polders. Thanks to an extensive network of cycling and walking paths, you can enjoy the natural beauty of the Yser estuary. Handy information panels tell you everything about this wonderful nature reserve along the way.

        IJzer estuary. The IJzer is the only major river in Belgium that flows directly into the North Sea. Due to the brackish water there are very special biotopes.
