    The beach
    The main attraction of nieuwpoort is of course the beach.Take a walk along the water or a walk in the dunes to watch the flowers and plants,or just enjoy the beach,the see and the sun.You can also go for a walk on the westerstaketsel

    To take a walk alongside the dyke !
    To take a walk alongside the dyke

    We left on the extremity of the dyke. On the way works of artists brightened the trip.

    There was not too much folk, also the walk was well pleasant. The sailing ships leaving marina harbour as well as the birds looking for food on the sand benches were as much points of animation on the way.

    ---oooOOOooo---

    Nous sommes partis de l'extrémité de la digue. En chemin des œuvres d'artistes agrémentaient le trajet.

    Il n'y avait pas trop de monde, aussi la promenade était bien agréable. Les voiliers quittant la marina ainsi que les mouettes cherchant de la nourriture sur les bancs de sables étaient autant de points d'animations en chemin.
