A highlight: the international seaport of Zeebrugge! There are cruise ships, ferries, gigantic cargo ships and luxury yachts! This port is also home to the Belgian Naval Base and "Star Island"; an artificial peninsula specially designed as a protected breeding area for birds.

Blankenbergse Vaart

Highlight • River

The story of dikes and drainage canals is linked to the reclamation of the coastal plain north of Bruges. Dikes protect against incoming water from the sea. Drainage channels protect against flooding from inland by draining excess rainwater. One of the important drainage channels in the coastal plain around Bruges is the Blankenbergse vaart, a 12 kilometer long waterway between Bruges and Blankenberge. The network of smaller canals and ditches drains the water to this central drainage canal, which in turn leads the water to the sea.
