Walking around Westkapelle

The route starts in the forest that lies along the Westkapelse Kreek. This creek was created after the North Sea dike was destroyed in a bombing raid during the Second World War. On a car-free road, often sheltered by bushes, you walk through the vast polder towards the sea dike. While you walk along the North Sea, you can get a breath of fresh air and enjoy the sound of the waves crashing on the dike. You pass the Noorderhoofd, the low lighthouse of Westkapelle that dates from 1875. You can go to Het Polderhuis Museum and more for a pit stop on the terrace and for an interesting museum visit. On the dike you can admire a Sherman tank, but also enjoy the view over Westkapelle.
