Middelkerke & Westende

In Middelkerke, it is the beach and the sea that matter most. Even the brand-new Coastal History Museum focuses nostalgically on these twin pillars of tourism. Nearby well-preserved Westende still breathes some of the atmosphere of elegant bourgeois holidaymakers in former times.

Places to Stay

If you want to stay right in the centre of Middelkerke just 100 metres from the beach, then Hotel Honfleur is your cup of tea. If you prefer a more rural and authentic place, you will love B&B Het Zilte Zand in Westende’s prettiest street.

Places to Eat

Middelkerke ‘s Eat and Sea is the perfect place to have dinner with a view over the water. In Westende, gastronomic restaurant Marquize in an elegant coastal house is a treat for all the senses.

Things to Enjoy

Satisfy yourself with the pure, simple pleasures of Middelkerke beach, or absorb the elegant atmosphere of yesteryear in nearby Westende, while brushing up on your history at Villa Les Zéphyrs or the brand-new Museum of Coastal History.
