  • Sint Anneke or the left bank of the Schelde.
    When the sun is shining almost everyone in Antwerp goes to the other side of the Schelde. In St.Anneke you will find a sand beach and a lot of terraces where you can eat mussles with French frites (our speciality). From here you have a magnificent view on the skyline of Antwerp.

    ANTWERP : FLANDRIA BOAT TRIPS
    on the River Scheldt:

    There are various possibilities. A trip on the River Scheldt (approx. 50 minutes) gives you an unforgettable picture of the city and the river. A visit to the gigantic port area (approx. 2 ½ hrs) takes you right into the docks where mighty sea ships are loaded and unloaded. Evening trips include a carefully-prepared meal with wine served in an atmospheric setting (approx. 3 hours).
    Flandria also does one-day trips to various tourist destinations.
    Most trips start from the pontoon by the Steen. However, visits to the port depart from Quay 13 (Londenbrug or London Bridge - Little Island).
    You do need to make a reservation in good time for evening and day trips.

    Information is available from the little boat-shaped Flandria building on the Steenplein.

    Steenplein and Quai 13

    Go and take a look at the river Schelde and enjoy the view.
    Parking on the other side of river Schelde (not directly the side at the centre) is much cheaper! By taking the tunnel you can get to the other side of the river Schelde and will be able to enter the centre of town. (This tip was given to me by Rieke (Ria) and Myriam_c (Myriam).

    Walking along the river you'll see the castle which dates from 13th century.it's quite impressive, at least to me. As i know the maritime museum is now in it.

    Walking along the Schelde you can not miss the Steen. The castle-like building was a prison from the 13th century until 1823. Built around 1200 and rebuilt in 1520 by the order of Emperor Charles V. The rebuilding in 1520 was done with different stones and untill today one can see what is from 1200 (the dark underpart) and what is 'new'.
    In 1862 it became a museum, since 1952 it is the National Maritime Museum.

    At the left bank of the city is also a yacht harbour. It is not far from Saint Annabeach. Go and have a look and dream about travelling on the high seas.

    This mill was destroyed by a fire a couple of years ago. It has been restored, but I don't really like it. On the ground floor is a very ugly cafe restaurant.
