  • I regularly take visitors from abroad (or in fact, if they are from somewhere in The Netherlands too) on a little stroll through Brielle.Showing them some highlights of our little town but leaving enough to explore later!

    The following 30-odd tips are a description of the walk that I usually take. With a liquid reward at the end!

    All photo's are made by my friend Nigel from Andover (UK) who kindly let me use them for this website.

  • At this point we're only 7 minutes from starting point. But of course one looks around, takes pictures so it takes a little longer.
    Turning a corner one finds oneself at the old harbour where now various yachts and boats are moored.

     I would love to take your tour of Brielle...in person. But, perhaps the liquid reward before the walk if it's cold...and after. Loved you photos.
