Once a thriving fishing village, the coastal town of Westkapelle in the Netherlands is a haven for tourists who are looking to soak in the sun and enjoy some time in the lap of nature. This seaside town on the island of Walcheren is quite small and one can explore it easily on foot or on a bicycle. The long stretches of clean, sandy beaches and the dike are popular tourist haunts.
Travelers can visit popular landmarks such as the Landings monument, which tells the tale of Germans being forced out of the village by the allied forces. Those interested in the town’s history can visit the Polderhuis museum, as well as the Liberty Bridge. There is a tank monument, which is a memorial to those who fought in the war. The Lighthouse in Westkapelle is another popular spot on the tourist map. While it’s quite a climb to the top, you can enjoy a bird’s eye view of the town. You can take a quiet stroll down the pier and enjoy the cuisine at the local eateries.
