West-Vlaanderen Region Transportation

Most places are withing walking distance. However, you can hire easily hire bikes. An extra tip is: from the seaside, many of the buildings look the same. Don't get lost!

A voir: un bateau énorme qui traverse la route... En fait, c'est la route qui se lève (pont-levis) pour laisser passer les bateaux, ça vaut le coup d'oeil.

Wonderful small city for touristic purposes. Well preserved and nice, though too many tourists. Easy to access by train.

Place to catch the ferry from Belgium for the UK ... not much happening otherwise... nowadays, with the Eurostar, even this has limited appeal unless you're taking your car...

Brugge is a nice old Belgian city with lots of interesting sites to see. Do visit the Begijnhof, the park and note the many small canals, called the 'Reien'. Brugge is a popular touristic hotspot so beware of big crowds and pickpockets!! You best visit during weekdays. Getting there is very easy: go by train, departing from Antwerp, Brussels, Ghent or any other big Belgian city. Do not forget to bring your camera because there's lots to photograph!!
