The Zwarte Polder was constructed in 1623. This polder flooded in 1802. Hence the name Verdronken Zwarte Polder.

Drowned Black Polder

Highlight • Natural

The Verdronken Zwarte Polder is a so-called slufter - an area behind a row of dunes that has broken through - and was created in 1802. In fact, however, this area was created by a dike breach, which flooded the 120 hectare Zwarte Polder, which was created in 1623. It concerned a constructed dike in which a modest row of dunes spontaneously developed. This dammed up the remaining part of the Black Hole. Since then, the area has only been partially reclaimed. In 1803 an area of 8 hectares was re-diked, today known as Zwarte Polder.

Cadzand-Bad beach is one of the cleanest beaches in the Netherlands. It is not far from the Belgian border and offers plenty of opportunities for leisure activities. For example, for a long walk on the beach, a sun ribbon on the beach, in summer for swimming, flying a kite or for geocaching.

Even though I hiked here today, I'm looking forward to a bike tour that I'll start here from Cadzand Bad. Of course only when the temperatures are suitable.
