Spuikom Oostende-Bredene

Highlight • Lake

A spüikom / drainage basin consists of basins or polders, which are connected via a lock with a seaport and were flooded at high tide in ancient times and emptied at low tide with great force. So excess sludge could be removed without dredgers from the ports.

Fort Napoleon Ostend

Highlight • Historical Site

Fort Napoleon, a pentagonal military fortress by the sea in Ostend, is now a modern museum. The exhibition tells the story of the fort in a lively way. If you have the time and inclination, definitely recommended.

The brasserie in the museum has a lovely terrace with a view of the sea and is ideal for a short break. More information, opening hours, etc. on fort-napoleon.be

Bredene Beach

Highlight • Beach

The natural chain of dunes, around 4 km long and up to 350 m wide, is the natural protective wall for the land behind and below sea level. The seaside resort is known for its play, hiking and sports facilities and as an Eldorado for nudists and nature lovers. Bredene offers its visitors 30 campsites, numerous family-friendly holiday villages and nice guesthouses. All accommodations are regularly inspected and rated and ranked based on comfort. The beaches are child-friendly, flat and almost untouched.
