Travel Tips for Oostende
For the visitor a stroll...
by annelies77
For the visitor a stroll alongside the 'Visserskaai' is really a must. When coming from the railway station in the direction of the beach, one can first of all see the fisher-boats that wait here before their next trip begins. There is a large fisher harbor in Oostende. The most important part is the 'Fish-mine', a large fish market, where early in the morning the fresh North-Sea fish is sold to the fish retailers. They sell the fish on to the restaurants all over Belgium. The Oostende fishermen fish on the North Sea, as far as the waters around Iceland.

Biking

Around Ostend you find miles of bicycle paths along canals, from town to town, or from quaint cafés to gastronomic restaurants.
Bikes can be rented at several places in the city. TIP : to rent a good and cheap bicycle, go to the railway station (6,50 € half a day and 9 € for the day).
The picture shows the WIJNENDALE biking route, 58 km., situated between Ostend and Torhout. More info and pictures on this biking route is coming soon.

Visitors who enjoy going out until the early hours will find all they need in the Langestraat and its vicinity. Oostende has plenty of lively pubs, bars, attractive discos, and a cinema complex. And of course there is always the Casino-Kursaal for those who enjoy a bit of a gamble.
