Plage d'Amante

Friends, sun, sand and sea. That sounds like a summer to me. Three beachbars located on the Belgian shore. One for chilling, one for kids big and small and another for playing.

Very pretty lake set in well laid out and beautiful park close to the city centre in Bruges. A place to enjoy a very pleasant stroll away from the hustle and bustle

Bruges Art Route

Reviewed By LeeB1551 - Barton-upon-Humber, United Kingdom

This is worth a walk to see the windmills. From coach drop off point near Minnewater Lake it took about 30 minutes to walk around to the windmills. From there it was about a 20 minute walk back into the centre of town. Like many buildings in Bruges, the Windmills are visually very striking and provide excellent opportunities for photographs.

De Panne Beach

Reviewed By GDlikes - Basingstoke, United Kingdom

Miles of clean sand running all the way up this coast. We tour in a motorhome so can't comment on parking as we walked to the beach from our camp site but there seems to be lots of parking available though. The beach is huge and has clearly marked out areas for different activities (sun bathing, kite surfing etc). We used the end with the (modern) statue of King Leopald. This section is dog-friendly all year (we visited in July). Popular with families as it has plenty of Life Guards, beach huts, free toilets and ice cream trollies! There's a good selection of restaurants and bars on the prom - all well-prepared for the prevailing winds with glass shelters and wind breaks. Likewise for the sun-worshippers amongst you, there are plenty of areas you can hire in the middle section of the beach that have built-in wind breaks. Not sure of the pricing as we didn't use them. Kids will love it here as there's a mad selection of quirky bikes, scooters and mini-quads for hire on the wide prom. There's a big wheel at the other end of the beach, a bouncy castle at the King Leopald end together with an old carousel. All in all, something for everyone and literally miles and miles of sand!

Maerlant Bicycle Trail

Reviewed By belgianguy1 - Bruges, Belgium

This is an easy and relaxing bicycle ride, through beautiful countryside, it's possible to cycle on both sides of the canal, so it makes for a good variety on the way back

De Zonnegloed Sanctuary

Reviewed By 323kristofv - Ghent, Belgium

De Zonnegloed is such a beautiful project where you can easily spend half a day visiting all the animals and reading their personal stories. This sanctuary is not funded by the government, so a huge amount of respect for the work these people have done and are still doing.
