My Flanders
Bruges Introduction
The Flemish Coast, is something of a secret: along 67 kilometres of pristine beaches stand 14 resorts, each with its own unique style and character. There is something to suit everyone: long sandy beaches at De Panne and Westende, fishing ports and excellent seafood at Nieuwpoort and Zeebrugge, leisure and sporting activities at Blankenberge and Middelkerke and designer shopping at Knokke-Heist. Vodcast of the stunning Coastline presented by Simon Calder and Ben Ross. 

"The real draw on the Flemish coast is gastro-tourism. Connoisseurs have long maintained that Belgium has better food than France and the country's coastline doesn't let the side down." Rhiannon Batten, Travel Editor She Magazine

While De Panne is famous for its sand-sailing, Koksijde is cultural and Knokke-Heist is very chichi. In contrast De Haan is a good old-fashioned beach resort that evokes memories of childhood. Take your pick – discover which one is perfect for you. Check out today's and the forecast for the weather at the Coast.
