Description

A delightful stroll through Nieuwpoort begins at the majestic King Albert I Monument, a striking tribute to the wartime monarch and a symbol of Belgian resilience. From here, follow Albert I Laan, a wide boulevard that offers glimpses of the harbor and the bustling maritime activity. As you walk, you'll pass various shops and eateries, reflecting the vibrant local life. Continuing straight, you'll reach the charming Marktplein, Nieuwpoort's central square. On your way, notice the diverse architecture, a mix of traditional Flemish styles and more modern constructions, all contributing to the town's unique character. Before reaching the square, you'll likely spot the impressive St. Bernardus Church (Sint-Bernarduskerk), a prominent landmark with its distinctive spire. The Marktplein itself is a lively hub, often hosting markets and events, and is surrounded by inviting cafes perfect for a well-deserved break.
