Endless beaches, great views, beautiful bike path.

The cycle path above the dike is raised - logically - so you have a great view of the sea.

The Veersedam, or Veersegatdam, was built in 1961 at the mouth of the Veerse Gat to protect parts of Walcheren, Noord-Beveland, and Zuid-Beveland from a potential new disaster. The construction of the dam, which was intended to connect Walcheren with Noord-Beveland, was not easy. The Veerse Gat was larger than the Zandkreek, and a strong current occurred at every high tide. More than 70 million m3 of water flowed through the mouth at both low and high tide. If the hole were closed with the same caissons as at the Zandkreek Dam, the current would eventually become too strong (the smaller the hole to be closed, the greater the current, as the same amount of water is forced through a smaller opening). The solution was the so-called "pass caissons," which, unlike the unit caissons of the Zandkreek Dam, were open. The section where the dam was to be built was first raised by spraying sand, and then a "sill" of stones was placed on which the caissons could stand firmly. The caissons were then placed one by one into the 320-meter-wide hole. At the time of installation, the caissons were still open, allowing water to flow freely, and only when the flow was minimal were the gates in the caissons lowered. Since the Zandkreek was already closed, a new lake, the Veerse Meer, was created. Much would change in this lake, especially as the saltwater slowly became brackish.

We love this bike route. From Scharendijke across the island to the south. Then along the Oosterschelde over dykes and directly past the water. Sometimes you share the path with sheep and cows. Then stroll in Zierikzee and across the island back to Scharendijke. A total of about 40 km. When the sun is shining, the water is wonderfully blue and you can hear it rushing next to you all the time.

One of the many viewpoints of the North Sea and the Veerse Meer.
