Zuydcoote's old train station is a historic building dating back to the 19th century. It was part of the railway line that connected Dunkirk with De Panne. The station closed in 1992 and fell into disrepair. Since 2019, the station has been renovated and turned into a tourist information point. The station is also located on a new cycle path that runs over the old railway track. This cycle path is part of the Vélomaritime, a cycle route that goes along the entire French coast. The cycle path offers a great opportunity to discover the dunes and nature of Zuydcoote.
